Is the Magic Bus 142 on public display in Fairbanks?

Hi there,

Is the Magic Bus 142, which is at the Museum of the North in Fairbanks for restoration, currently on public display? Can we see it during a visit to the museum? Thanks so much for your help! Syl

It’s still being restored, and nothing’s certain about it being open to the public by summer 2025. https://www.uaf.edu/museum/exhibits/virtual-exhibits/bus142/

Otherwise, the replica bus—the one used for filming *Into The Wild*—is freely accessible in Healy, in the courtyard of the 49th State Brewery.

Hi Nico, Thanks for the update. We’ll settle for the replica, then. Have a great day
