Bus
Our bus is a '91 International with a Wayne body. This is the fourth bus that our troop has owned and we couldn't operate without it. Since buying it on eBay we have installed tinted windows we found at a junk yard, installed a stereo and speakers for the boys to listen to on the way to campouts, a two-way radio, a deadbolt lock and an air ride hitch to pull the trailer. We also had it painted black and lettered it with the troop logo.

Trailer
We have purchased a brand new enclosed trailer from H&H Trailers. They make a very high quality trailer with an attention to detail. Below are pictures and interior drawings, here are some highlights of our trailer.

• 2004 H&H 7' x 14' tandem axle enclosed trailer with ramp door
• 6' sidewalls, almost 7' high in the center
• Wire shelving throughout
• Milk crates for organizing everything; a different crate for everything (yes they are legal)
• First aid kit and fire extinguisher mounted just inside door.
• Wired with bright interior lighting and a battery for those times we aren't hooked to a vehicle
• Equipment checkout board
• Split interior design -
  • front third personal gear (packs, sleeping bags, etc.)
  • back two thirds troop gear (tents, coolers, patrol boxes, etc.)

To see additional photos of the inside, please roll over drawings below.

If you ever want to pull a trailer with a bus contact us so we can give you some very valuable information. We learned the hard way by braking the tongue off first.

We have a lot of people ask us about the advantages and disadvantages of owning a troop bus. If you have any questions about our equipment please feel free to email us.

If you haven't seen our custom patrol boxes you need to.
