The DTC is going to preserve some of its old buses into food places it seems? I have been wanting a presevation effort from the DTC and I am quite happy with this, hopefully they expand this pilot program (and hopefully I can go there)

This is very cool! I have a fondness for vehicles being repurposed when they’re too old for ongoing use - there used to be some restaurants operating out of old train cars around here, and I remember one restaurant that used old ski gondolas as booths. Not everything will make it into a museum but if it can get preserved another way, that’s pretty cool.
yes! reusing and thus preserving equipment is really cool and I love whenever organisations do that! I was at a restraunt recently which used a train coach to house a whole restaurant which was great although it kind of felt shoe horned in given they barely did anything to preserve the seating or the styling, completely restoring it into a modernist style kich thing, but hey still a really cool experience!
Really hope they can sustain this because the DTC has barely made an efforts to preserve any other parts of its history and this would be the first big step and I have been advocating about this (read: complaining to anyone who will listen) for a while now.
