Buses, Trolleys and Trams - Sofia July 2013

Post by Mr OC Benz »

I spent a week in Sofia, Bulgaria back in July. They have quite an interesting variety of vehicles. Here's a selection, and you can see them plus more here: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set ... 909&type=3

That bus in the last photo (3908) looks top heavy. If that's the air-conditioning unit, why would it need to be so big, compared to other buses?

By the way, can you understand where it is going?!

I noticed that both the trolley buses and trams in Sofia, Bulgaria don't carry number plates. This is the same situation as in Australia in which I raised the topic at this link - http://www.busaustralia.com/forum/viewt ... t=+trolley

Great photos, as usual Mr OC Benz.
