The California steam bus project is summarized in a final report on the development and demonstration of Rankine Cycle external combustion propulsion systems for urban transit vehicles. Project history, organization, and financing are summarized in detail. Three contractors were selected to install steam powerplants in conventional motor coaches, replacing the standard diesel engines, each contractor being paired with the transit system in a different city.
