Overview with pictures: http://sl.wikipedia.org/wiki/LPP#Preglednica_vozil (In Slovene)

I'm from Perth, Western Australia.

Our public transport operations are branded as 'Transperth' and the 1100-strong bus fleet consists mainly of Mercedes-Benz buses with smaller quantities of Renaults, a handful of MANs, and two odd-balls - a Scania L94UA CNG and an Irisbus Citelis 18 CNG.

Mercedes-Benz O 405 NHs (LE version of the O 405 N²) and Mercedes-Benz OC 500 LEs make up the vast majority of the fleet these days. Much of the fleet is CNG-fuelled. Of those, the Mercedes-Benz OC 500 LE is the most prominant (475 units) followed by Mercedes-Benz O 405 NH (43 units) and Mercedes-Benz O 405 (14 units). Currently entering service are 66 Mercedes-Benz OC 500 LEs with BlueTec EEV engines (299 PS). From the middle of the year, we are expecting the commencement of a new bus supply contract with Volvo who will be supplying the B7RLE and B12BLEA chassis.

The majority of our buses are bodied by Volgren (originally a partnership between Volvo and Grenda Corporation, Melbourne - hence the name).

In Finland we have this kind of buses:
Ikarus E94


Volvo 8700


Scania L94 UB


Ikarus E94 (newer version)


Irisbus Crossway LE


and for last my favourite:Volvo B10B LE


And some more...

What's with the front display route number size? It's giant compared to rest of Europe...

I dont know. Why its so big

iam stuch with the Go Ahead and be Late groups Bluestar which has some nice buses but First South coast are the best

Palatine EFLs Very good Fast
Volvo B7TL ALX400 + Gemini bit hard on the brakes
Darts
Enviro 200
BMC 1100FE Lumps of Rubish

WE got a few companys
Mainly National express west midlands (formally twm),
the best buses were the metro buses but were all withdrawn last year, so we got volvo's, gemini's, solo's, eviro's,bendy buses the works everything we have.

N then we got diamond buses, midland, central connect and a few independants.

Some of them don't drive anymore (The second 5A bus, the Mercedes 250S and the DAB 350S), but this is my favorite danish buses of all time I think.

I am from India. Here each bus has a different style, because they are only bought with chassis and rest is built up according to their taste. These are ashok leyland buses. All buses dont have air suspensions.

old bus. still they run on few routes


Low floor buses. has air suspensions


vestible bus


double deckers.. not running now



a very few volvo buses...we usually dont go in this. ticket rates are high..although comparing here to uk its like 80p max ..


these buses all owned and run by government. they have some 4000 buses just for a city 11 times smaller than of London..

the below buses are intercity and long travel buses..

inter-town and village buses..


intercity buses.. these have stops in all the towns which are on the way to final destination.. I wish some body could make a bus like this for OMSI.. will be very useful for my map..



long intercity bus...will have stops of 1 or 2.. has air suspensions


Air conditioned bus for long intercity routes... has air suspensions


And I love all these buses.. great sound and good drivers...
