How does TOM III get to University events?
TOM III travels in a climate-controlled, soundproof trailer, always under police escort. TOM III’s trailer was restored and its systems re-engineered in 2007 at a cost of more than $40,000. The 3,500 pound, steel-and-tempered-glass trailer can support more than twice its own weight and has three redundant electrical systems to support the environmental controls that keep TOM III comfortable.
