They do provide an essential service in our economy. <br /> <br />My "all time" favorite transit coaches are the GMC "Fishbowl" series. (Same type of bus you see in the movie <i>SPEED</i>. Introduced in 1959, these buses ran for years and are built tough! They're still running in Canada! They broke down less frequently than their replacements, the GMC RTS series. <br /> <br />My favorite "long distance" bus is the MCI MC-9. Also a well built coach. MCI and Eagle were dominant in the U.S.A for so many years. Now Europeon coaches are becoming the preferred choice for many charter bus companies. (sigh!) For those of you old enough to remember the 1970s, Greyhound preferred MCI coaches while Trailways used Eagles. <br /> <br />Believe it or not, there are a lot of bus fans out there! There seem to be just as many bus forums as train forums. <br /> <br />I'm primarily a model railroader/railfan but to me I like ALL transportation modes and enjoy having model samples of the non-railroad stuff. <br /> <br />Be flexible and do a little exploring of other transportation modes. LIke railroads they all have their unique problems too. <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Antonio, <br />Do you remember the Trailways "Golden Eagle" articulated with the lounge in the back. All reserved seats I believe. <br />Mitch
