Use a full 102” wide body offering 80” of headroom. Blend in a comfortable 20” aisle while providing 19” coach type seating with options such as arm rests, recliners, foot rests and pull down trays.

The Saf-T-Liner® HDX bus features a rear-engine design that is the mainstay of transit-style bus fleets. It has a capacity of 66-90 passengers. The engine is located in the back for ideal weight distribution whether empty and loaded. This also creates a quiet and comfortable ride, with an oversized windshield giving the driver great visibility. Able to tackle mountain roads and city streets in style, this bus features a thermostatically controlled hydraulic cooling system, larger brakes, a steel drop frame, optional air suspension and optional transmission retarders for improved braking. There's even generous optional underbody storage for student activities and trips. Saf-T-Liner HDX Rear Engine Transit

After years of market research, design, testing and fabrication, the Thomas Saf-T-Liner® C2 is a reality. The Saf-T-Liner® C2 is the result of Thomas' quest to create a new conventional style bus that would redefine the Type C category. Launched in the fall of 2004, every element of the C2 was designed and engineered to improve durability, reliability, safety and lifecycle cost. The C2 is so innovative that we built a $40 million state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in High Point, N.C. to produce it.

Since the first bus rolled off the Thomas assembly line in 1936, we've operated with one simple philosophy: build the kind of bus that we'd want our own children to ride in. That simple idea drives the way we do business-from the way we engineer our buses to be stronger and better than the standard, to the way we train our customers to keep their buses running smoothly throughout their lifespan.
Today, Thomas Built Buses is North America's leading bus manufacturer, offering a full line of school, commercial and specialty buses. One in every three children in America who rides a bus to school or an activity, rides a Thomas.
