I was curious if any of you other school bus enthusiasts create your own model/toy school bus fleets? I originally had about 10 small hot wheels school buses and I saw this video on YouTube
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hW3rbpDvhTo&list=UUDG27jSVEv_nb6tHxCnMzyg&index=1&feature=plcp which got me thinking why not create my own larger model fleet for fun. Now a year later I have about 150 buses and about 200 employees.
My model toy school bus fleet follows my current employer the Kickert School Bus Company (Chicago, IL) a subsidiary of the Cook-Illnois Corporation which is the 6th largest school bus company in the United States.
If you have any questions or pictures of your model school bus fleets rather small or big feel free to post them; thanks! |

How big are the Boley IC CE models and the Herpa BB models compared to the Road Champs Waynes? Same thing with the off brand Thomas ER model. Just curious! Nice setup you have there. |

Thanks! I wish they made more bus models of the same scale, it's hard to have a variety otherwise. Very nice pics you have, keep up the good work! |
