Can the buses be easily removed?
Looks good. I see your guys washing the bus closed the roof hatch, too!

Yes , the screws that hold the bus can be removed very easy if needed.. Bob
it's nice. I'm going to slice mine up to make into a Monorail maintenance shed.
Bob can the lifts be removed?

There are no screws holding these on, so I would say they are glued. A little TCL, I think they would come off. Bob
I like this one. In my profession, I'd have to change the name to "Throwem Under" Bus Company.
Looks great!
They did a pretty good job on it, I drove a school bus 8 years here in Tampa and will be ordering one.

Thanks Bob. I'll have to see how they work with my airport emergency vehicles.
I could use this for my Greyhound fleet. Will a Corgi Greyhound Scenicruiser fit in the bays?
I am very interested in this model as well, are the buses shown 1/64 scale? seems to appear as so, how does a 1/50 Corgi look beside the garage?
Menards guy, I wish you would add your buses available for sell separate, there are 3 I would like to buy.

No, Gorgi scenicruisers are 10 inches in length while the depth of the building is about nine inches. Gorgi does produce some earlier models in 1:50 scale that will fit nicely, however including models of Yellow Bus and GM prototypes. Gorgi also has Flxible clippers, in Greyhound livery. I believe Scenicruisers made an appearance about 1955 so any models produced before 1955 should fit nicely.
Alan, You mentioned "monorail shed". What are you using for O scale monorail cars/track?

The model is O scale so the buses are also O scale. As long as you go for models of older Gorgi buses, they will look fine. Scenicruisers and more modern buses are too large to fit in the stalls. They are 10 inches or more in length and the total depth of this model is 9 inches. You can find many 1:50 scale Corgis by searching eBay - Corgi - bus - 1:50
thanks for the info, yes I already have mth and corgi buses
Are these models of buses, say, IH? That building looks like it would work as a modern firehouse, if there are engines to fit. The one 1940 school bus l saw in a show, and should have bought, was gone in my second pass
