thebees Posted November 23, 2004 Share Posted November 23, 2004 Monkey Magic, that picture is a fake! That is obviously NOT an Isle Of Man bus! I'll be more specific then, what decade did the Corpy have yellow busses and were they like the trams type of yellow - that would look quite smart wouldn't it? Hey, remember the wonderful Douglas 2000 idea? the one where they painted everything blue? Its 2004 now, why is everything still blue and ugly? Edit - Cheers old git, I remember them now, the busses were much nicer in the 'old days' (1957.....) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Old Git Posted November 23, 2004 Share Posted November 23, 2004 Edit - Cheers old git, I remember them now, the busses were much nicer in the 'old days' It looks like fleet number matched reg number from 1967 onwards for a while. Not that I'm a bus anorak or anything, it's just something that I noticed a while ago. Not been on a local bus since 1975 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
