Fire Engine

Post by sean »

My folks were over in Switzerland last month and spotted these two Baywindow’s while over there. As they were sitting in bumper to bumper traffic they had a quick chat. Turns out these two buses are still this gas plant/refinery everyday fire engines. Apparently they are driven everyday and have never been replaced with anything newer. :hangloose:

They appeared to be in really beautiful condition.

Sambas in South Africa are good for only 2 things: showing off and sunburn.
