Meet the Mechanics

Here you can find out information on what our Mechanics do

Head Mechanic

Tom Edwards

Tom has just started with us as of June 2006.  Tom comes to HF-L with a long history of diesel maintenance.  He will be a great asset to our department.  Tom is taking over the helm of a well run department and has brought with him many great ideas to keep our buses safe and efficient.

Mechanic

Rich Donegan

Rich has been with the district since 1979.  His responsibilities include doing all of the wheel pulls to check out the brakes on the vehicles.  Rich is also great at the electrical work on the buses.  There are many wires on a bus and Rich is able to keep them all straight.

Mechanic

Chris Bancroft

Chris has been with us since 1984.  Chris is in charge of performing services on the buses.  You can usually find Chris under a bus checking out things such as exhaust pipes, air hoses, engine oil, and transmission fluid. 

Garage Helper

Have you ever noticed how nice and clean the buses look driving down the road?  That is because our Garage Helpers spend many hours during the day cleaning them.  It takes about 30 minutes to clean one bus, and we have 45 of them in the fleet.  Kudos to Barb and Eileen for doing such a great job.
