I think the video has missed capturing the Ashok Leyland Tiger and rear-engine buses which were around in 1998. |
Rear-engined buses were there in 1998? I didn't know that. I thought they were there much earlier in 1 or 2 double-deckers.
Yes, the video is very nice but has missed some models. Like the yellow vestibule buses, "light blue" liveried buses (with passenger seating on an elevated platform, for some reason), etc.
One of the "light blue" liveried buses used to have autotransmission, I've been in those, though that was several years earlier, probably late 80's. Heydeys of BEST truly! (circa 1985 - circa 2002, after which a steep decline) |
