Castro's semi-buses still going strong, even if he isn't

| 3 Comments | No TrackBacks

That Australian semi-bus reminds me of the buses they have in Cuba.
The Camels were introduced in the early 1990s as a temporary measure, and they are still there today.
Designed to carry 300 passengers, they are hot, overcrowded and rather dangerous. Any tourist who is brave enough to board one will almost certainly have his pockets picked. It's only saving grace is its price - about 1p for a return journey!

Now that's what I call an interesting bus. Anybody know the prime-mover or who made the 'pigeon cree' bus trailer.Does the truck have an extended body for a reason?

The tractor unit is an International 9800; the semitrailer looks like a Sydney city double-decker rail carriage turned inside out or upside down or something!
