Greetings Bernie from North Bohemia



I hope your visiters might be interested in my collection of English buses... in the Czech Republic !



All the buses have been driven the 1000 plus miles across Europe by myself and friends over the last four years.







The first photo shows my London Transport Routemaster RM798, the good old Routemaster celebrated its 50th anniversary this year, although mine was only built in 1961.







The second photo shows a Leyland PD2 Titan built in 1964 and new to Warrington Borough Transport in the North West of England. This bus had an amazing life with Warrington, first as a regular city bus, then as a driver trainer, then as a promotions bus for its Coachline subsidary when it was fitted out with a bar and tables and seating to both decks and it was purchased by myself from Warrington in 2000 complete with the original seats ! It is still in its last colour scheme and runs very well.







The final photo is another ex.Warrington bus, this time a 1981 Leyland Atlantean which was no 26 in the fleet ( OTB26W)which was professional restored by its builders East Lancashire Coachworks in Blackburn and is preserved in its original livery .



Please visit my home page for details of other buses in my collection. It can be found at
