Old trailer keeps students out of the rain


Where do old RVs go when they die? Sometimes, it's to the junkyard. In rural areas, they often end up in a field where they gather moss. Near Eddyville, Ore., along rural U.S. route 20, a retired travel trailer provides shelter at a school bus stop. This part of the country gets a whole buncha rain. If you're a kid waiting for a ride to school, even a beat old RV like this is likely a very good thing.

  1. Sorry, I see these old trailers as a work of art and reflections of the past that should be preserved not "junked" out!

  3. Wonderful idea! Just needs a little TLC. The kids that use this and their parents could make it better & safer with a little weekend work. Come on kids....show your appreciation to the one who thought about you and keeping you dry in the first place.

  4. It would much safer if the door wall were totally removed so that the kids could see in to it before they enter. I hate to be pessimistic, but a pervert could be hiding in there one day. I would only see using this if a responsible adult were always present with the kids that use it.
