That looks weird.....but I like it! :lol: --- old post above --- --- new post below --- Thats vile!

They were very handsome vehicles too, I have fond memories of using the Northern Coach seated ones. Good to hear one has made it in preservation it must be said!

I never realised they were as 'new' as that, I always presumed them to have been built in the late 60's/early 70's! :lol: Lovely looking vehicles though!

I've took another look at the Fillipino ones and I see what you mean. The ones in the DPRK seem pretty genuine though and there are plenty of similar photo's of similar vehicles in pretty bad state of repair :)

Is it? :lol: Still eventhough they look dubious I still don't think they are photoshopped. The North Korean bus photo's however doubtful as being photoshopped....

The last one however is beautiful!!!!! :) --- old post above --- --- new post below --- I disagree with those Atlanteans being ugly, I kind of liked them although I prefered the Go Ahead Northern coach seated Atlanteans that Percy Main depot had (I think they were built for the PTE too??)

nope, seems it aint a photoshop some dude on another photo sharing site has tons of snaps of them - http://marcosrrobles.deviantart.com/gallery/

That does look weird. Looks like a cross between a standard Dennis Dart & a Leyland Lynx. Very odd looking thing

The top half looks like a Go-ahead Northern Olympian that I remember fondly from my childhood. The bottom looks like those ugly Dennis 'things'.....

I think that 'thing' has won the ugly bus contest! :lol: --- old post above --- --- new post below --- I kind of like it :D --- old post above --- --- new post below --- ach, I think that looks pretty stylish too....

The Wearsider does'nt look too bad as its not too muchdifferent to the other Northern front loading Routemasters of the day. The Tynesider however is vile! :lol: --- old post above --- --- new post below --- What about this beast in North Korea (sadly not my pic despite being a place I really...

hows about a couple from my collection? registered as a PSV so I think the Duck counts - http://www.flickr.com/photos/wiseman2007/5439109589/in/set-72157620717706493 I got greif taking this shot, maybe its a London thing -...

Surprised nobody has mentioned 'The Tynesider', which was a pimped up Northern Routemaster and ugly as sin (not my pic) - http://www.flickr.com/photos/15218213@N06/2468098163/ another shot showing its uglyness, again not my pic - http://www.flickr.com/photos/woodslibrary/4479366778/

sounds very odd, unless another operator is going to take over as a different number or if the Airport will be making thier own arrangements (maybe a number to dial to send a bus when they arrive?)

Thats a bit odd, I would imagine there would be a replacement or are there plenty of other buses that serve the station and Airport?

As long as everybody is sitting down (as they should be) I can't see there bing a problem, I'v been on plenty of buses with the doors open. I'm not sure if its allowed or not though

If you can get to Newcastle-upon-Tyne there is a back entrance to Eldon Square Shopping Centre inbetween Haymarket & Eldon Square Bus Stations. The entrance is by metal stairs/walkway on the side of M&S (above the pick up by car) and you get a champion view of the buses to/fro the two bus...

Thats one way to get rid of the smokers and chavvy boom boom boom music players! :lol:

Did it not come back as a single decker? :lol:
