As a cold front swept much of the country, we've been hearing and writing a lot about what's been going on in garages, from one Atlanta district's "Cold Start"program, to early rising in Texas and what one Ohio district does when temperatures drop to 35 below. But what do you do to cope with the cold? What works for you? Plug-in heaters? Indoor storage? Engine pre-heaters?
Side note: if you're worried about biodiesel and the cold, tomorrow STN looks at what really happened to one Minnesota fleet earlier this month. Until then, enjoy one of our favorite recent finds on YouTube: The Hot Rod School Bus.

I want to thank those guys and gals? in the grease pit who work long hours to keep us on the road. Do you always get things fixed "today", probably not. But things are not always what they seem. The mechanics work hard to fix "safety first" items. Perhaps a heater making noise or a window that rattles is annoying but can wait until the student lights on the next bus get fixed. Be patient and remember to say "thanks".
