How about a bus or truck done up like the vehicles in JP3 complete with bars on the windows for a safari type of ride? It could take a group of visitors through a network of paddocks that would include dinosaurs from all the 3 periods!
If a bus was used, the top could be removed so it's open, or left allowing bars to be fitted in place of glass windows. The park logo would be on the sides and front of the bus and the rest with a camouflage paint scheme.

Something like that, although I can't find a really decent view of it except the open top. I will either go for a single decker with window opened up and replaced with bars, or an open top double decker. As the park will start small, it's likely I will have the single decker version.

Make sure that you have sauropods if you're doing a double decker.  |

Yikes!! I've just been looking at the prices online for some second hand coaches and buses, and many average around £70,000! Clearly not an option to start with for a smallish park just starting up. But thinking about it... the queues of a small park wouldn't exactly be large, so a smaller vehicle such as a mini bus would probably do the job until the park expands. The prices on a mini bus range from £2000 - £7000, so that's more managable. I was thinking of getting a nice sleek looking one and modifying it to look more like the gatherer's vehicles in the Lost World. The Mecedes Benz looks fairly sleek looking , even with all the mods, so I aim to achieve something similar with the bus. I'd like to open out the windows and put bars there instead (protection from the dinos). I think windows will make people feel too 'closed in' and missing out on the atmosphere of the environment. The only good thing about windows is if it happened to rain.  This might be nice to move onto as the queues increase:  |
