1936 WHITE OPEN TOP TOUR BUS

All Buses on Hand

Diecast Scale 1:48

First used at Yellowstone National Park to replace the horse drawn trolleys. By 1940 there were 98 Model 706's at Yellowstone. There were only subtle changes made to the styling of the Model 706 in 1938 and 1939. (Note the square-cornered windshields of the 1936.) The older Yellowstone fleet was gradually phased out and the Model 706's were used until the mid 1960's when the remaining buses were sold.

Generally the buses were sold whenever they needed major repairs. Many never rolled again. In 2001 The Skagway Streetcar Company sold their fleet of 8 to Yellowstone National Park for restoration, exhibition, and limited tour duty. Most of the Yellowstone buses have been accounted for. Museums and private collectors own several.
