CH Bus Sales debuted their newest model, the TS 35E, this past January at the United Motorcoach Association Expo in Atlanta, GA. The TS 35E is an enhanced version of the already successful TS 35 mid-size coach. Deliveries began late this spring.
CH Bus Sales announced recent deliveries of the Temsa TS 35E motorcoach to several Midwest operators, including Mishawaka, Ind.’s Royal Excursions (one coach); Peoria, Ill.’s Peoria Charter (three coaches); and Caseyville, Ill.’s Vandalia Bus Lines (one coach).
The Temsa TS 35E coach is a fully integral mid-sized coach that offers the same amenities as a full-size coach but for a smaller group. The TS 35E has a variety of newly enhanced features including enlarged driver area, three-piece bumper and engine door for increased serviceability, and a welcoming entryway with LED tread lighting. The coach is also equipped with an American drivetrain, Cummins ISL engine and Allison B500 transmission.
In addition to the mid-size 40 passenger coach, recent sales of the full-size TS 45 coach took place to additional Midwest operators, including Middlebury, Ind.’s Cardinal Bus (one coach); Sheboygan, Wis.-based Discovery Coach (two coaches); Gary, Ind.’s Eclipse Charter (two coaches); Cedar Springs, Mich.’s Compass Coach (two coaches); Morton, Ill.’s Party Time Limousine (one); and Vandalia Bus Lines (two).
The Temsa TS 45 coach is a wholly integral full-size coach that offers a luxurious and spacious interior for passengers and driver. The TS 45 is constructed from stainless steel for extra durability and strength.
Equipped with the Cummins ISX engine and Allison B500 transmission, this coach provides raw power and optimum serviceability. Safety features such as, an engine fire suppression system, lane departure warning system, tire pressure monitoring system, and laminated and tempered windows, come standard.
