Abandoned School Bus Storm Shelter Buried in the Ground of Carroll County – Mississippi Mondays July 29, 2019

Update: posted a Canadian nuclear fallout shelter post that used 42 school buses – School Bus Nuclear Fallout Shelter Buried in Canada July 29, 2019.

I found this week’s Mississippi Mondays on Abandoned Playgrounds  – Abandoned School Bus Storm Shelter Buried in the Ground of Carroll County. It appears there are several similar school bus tornado shelters in other places – Alabama, Oklahoma, Canada, possibly other places.

Word of caution: it’s not as simple as buying a used school bus and burying it. You need to be prepared to understand what it takes to make this work. You will need someone knowledgeable about what it takes to safely bury and encase a school bus underground. This is a CNN video on one in Alabama – https://www.cnn.com/videos/us/2012/01/28/al-bus-storm-shelter.wsfa (about 1:47 minutes long).
