Village Tours of Kansas Takes Delivery of Second Vulcan 28 Sleeper “SuperCoach”
Village Tours of Wichita Kansas recently took delivery of their Second Vulcan “SuperCoach” conversion on a Prevost H3-45. Village took delivery of the first “SuperCoach” in 2005.
“After 1 full year of operation, our “SuperCoach” has proven to be a very versatile and profitable addition to our fleet”, says Norm Arensdorf, President of Village Charters, Inc.
After operating their first SuperCoach for one year with one anchor account, the second season found Village with 3 Major accounts to service. Village found it necessary to put a second SuperCoach in the fleet. Norm is expecting to add a third SuperCoach for next season to keep up with demand based on client interest
The Vulcan “SuperCoach” comfortably seats 35 people and sleeps 28 while providing the luxurious amenities customers have come to expect from Vulcan Coach. Vulcan accomplishes this with furniture that easily converts into sleeping. While the coach does sleep 28 people, there is no evidence of beds when you view the interior of the coach. All of the furniture and finishes are just what you would expect in an upscale luxury coach with no signs of bedding until you get ready for them. When it’s time to sleep, the sofas and dinettes are very easy for the passengers to individually convert to beds, and then back to seating all while traveling. The “SuperCoach” handles executive day trips just as easily when no sleeping is needed.
The floor plan provides large front and rear lounges with a full galley, bath, closet, and full size refrigerator separating the two lounges.
The coach is equipped with a 20 KW generator, 3 KW trace inverter, 160 amp auxiliary, alternator, and solar panels for power. Four roof mount a/cs with heat strips and three 1500 watt electric heaters take care of climate control. Flooring is luxury tile for low maintenance and durability. 65 gallon fresh water and holding tanks, a china toilet, water heater and sinks make up the plumbing system which can be dumped or filled from both sides of the coach. Polished solid surface countertops and deep pleated Ultra Leather upholstery add to the rich look of the coach interior. A 42 inch flat panel plasma TV in the rear, 32 inch and 20 inch LCD TV’s in front, Tracstar In-Motion satellite with full surround sound home theater systems in front and rear keep riders entertained while traveling.
“SuperCoach” markets include Sports Teams, Universities, Community Colleges, Corporate accounts, Broadway, Entertainers, Church Groups, Weddings…the list is unlimited.
