AI-generated (not entirely realistic) buses uk images

Ah - "NWOBHM" and US Bay Area scene, the sounds of the latter 1970s and the golden years of the 1980s; and I don't mean HSTs!
Looks like their transport is of a similar vintage... Hopefully "Killers" and "Ram it Down" are on the in-bus media system.

Meanwhile, the local bus service seems to have run into a bit of trouble.

 

[Sun Chariot]

The Worshipful Company of Road Services. Even the devout deserve a comfy seat and a good view.

Meanwhile, back in town, an alternative fuel-type causes a bit of froth.

 

[Topological]

I like the idea of a non-biofuel bus, exactly the kind of sticking a finger up at the authorities that the bus barons need. Phil in the other image is too compliant, he is almost sucking up to the powers that be.

As the 1980s female body fragrance's TV advert used to (nearly) tell us:
"If a man you've never met before keeps giving you flowers - that's harrassment."

 

[Topological]

Meanwhile, in case anyone was wondering...

 

[Sun Chariot]

A game for all weathers.
As East 17 once told us: "outside is raining but inside is wet."

 

[Topological]

East 17 also told us that you must "make sure that the lady is a friend". I do not know if that was also part of the inspiration for the image, but in gambling we should remember that the house is no gambler's friend.

Since @Sun Chariot has offered up a place to eat out, let us consider a product which might (after some patience) get us there...

 

[Sun Chariot]

Oh yes, the Genius advert. Good Things Wait for Those Who Come.

Back in the 1960s the concept of a Rail Replacement Bus was sometimes taken a little too literally.

Has your image located the true origin of the Beeching report?

One night after a long session with the archbishop, it was noted that the bus might be more effective if it was not constrained to the rails. How mad they must have all seemed to make such a suggestion.

Great to have your imagery back @CaptainHaddock

Having failed to stop at Bidston this morning, the Borderlands service from/to Wrexham ran round the Merseyrail loop. Here, it calls at Liverpool James Street.

Excellent image. Which bit is the bus?

 

[Leyland Bus]

A Heritage National still running for First??

Looks like one with a rebuilt roof and optional escape hatch!!

 

[Sun Chariot]

It's October - so, in retail-speak: "it's CHRISTMAAAAAAAS!"
Oh, I wish it could be Christmas every day.

After the Uprising, do they know it's Christmastime at all?

 

[Topological]

Feed the cockneys...



Not sure where Chris is going here, perhaps he moved house.

 

[Sun Chariot]

The Uprising, seen on Post 45, resulted in a new order: The Contactless. Here, one of Them surveys effects of moving the North Greenwich Peninsula nearer to the Isle of Dogs.

Continuing the waiting for beer theme, here is an image that I captured of people waiting to go to the cinema to see "Transformers: Buses take a responsibile approach to monitoring Greenwich". Probably.

 

[Sun Chariot]

If Carlsberg made Transformers out of milk-floats, they'd probably be the best ever milk-floats!

The bus? If you mean the all-too-frequently-deployed Rail Replacement coach, it met with a nasty accident, as witnessed by the bloke in the MGB.

An electrified Borderlands...

Though to be fair, there was little way in which that 230 was going to fit past the barrier once it had gone through the coach anyway

Not exactly a Twix, they fit anywhere.



Following a law suit, the bus company added a "T" and claimed that they were going 'twixt two locations.
