slew-Type Bus
Looking into the future,
Principal Weaver hopes to
combine the loads of buses
66 and 39, rearrange bus
routes east of Bailey, and,
thereby, eliminate second
loads.
Douglas Brown, driver of
bus 66, will become the
driver of this new bus.
Weaver believes that Bai
ley got the bus so as to
test it out over a long
route, both dirt and paved
roads, and because it
could load to near capa
city.
