A Little Bit Later
David Eschbach Sr.
David was an educator, school administrator, and PennDot official. He shifted the company’s focus to providing school bus services for children in Southern Lancaster County.
The Next Generation
Stoney Eschbach
Stoney expanded the business to become the largest school busing operation in Southern Lancaster County.
Third Generation
David Eschbach III
Dave has been involved in the school bus industry for almost 50 years. He has been successful in expanding the fleet, office and maintenance facilities and has been a trusted partner to local school districts for many years. “Davey” and the big yellow bus go hand in hand with members of the community. Dave has spent the last 8 years teaching his son-in-law everything he knows about the school bus business, all while gradually phasing out of the business as he approaches a well-deserved retirement.
