    A bit more fun then a school bus.

    My mom had one of those when we were kids...except it only had four doors. It wasn't as long. It had a trunk and it was white.

    Must've been a pretty pricey school if it could afford that many new cars every year.

    And those were not wealthy kids. They were low income and problem kids living in homes for troubled kids. So who paid for the school, the education, and those wagons? You did! While your kids walked to school or took public school buses.
    And they sure weren't dressed like low income students. None had their pants to the ground or hats on sideways.

    You may want to find out more about the school as it is free for those that need it and are aware of it and qualify. You may have family or friends that could benefit from it. Started over 100 years ago by Milton Hershey and his wife Catherine providing free care for kids of all walks of life. There's a trust that the Hersheys set up that provides the funding. An amazing institution....check it out: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?...993.1073741828.100011206351340&type=3&theater and http://www.mhskids.org/

    Those Stageways were such a big part of school life there in the 60's, that they starting restoring one...

    This was from 2015. I can't find any current information on the project.
    These airport limos were used by the Hershey School in the 60's as 'dorm vehicles'. Hershey is a boarding school, and each 'boarding house' had its own airport limo that they used. These days, they just use regular school buses.

    By the looks of them, they've got massive truck tires.......about like something you would have found on a 1/2 ton P/U.
