Many times on POG we have heard "take your bus to a bus repair facility" or a "charter bus company". If we are home it is a little easier to find a bus repair facility but on the road when a break down occurs it can be most difficult. Most recently I heard of the Bus Garage Index book and ordered it. It arrived today and has a very thorough listing of over 1200 bus repair facilities across the USA and Canada. The repairs centers are listed by state, province and alphabetical.
It is published by Bus Ride Magazine, a trade journal for charter bus companies. They too can break down or need service work while on a trip in an unfamiliar area. I believe it is a very valuable tool to have on on buses in case of emergency.
It can be ordered by calling 602-265-7600 ext 212. The cost is $40 and that includes first class shipping.
Since they are not sponsors, I hope this post is not censured as I believe it is a very important reference resource to carry on the bus.
