Stagecoach has resumed testing of an amphibious bus service in Glasgow after technical problems halted the first trial.
The “amfibus” was grounded less than an hour after taking to the River Clyde on Monday when an airbag popped out from part of the suspension.
The £700,000 Dutch-made vehicle can carry up to 45 passengers. The vehicle runs like a normal coach on the road but when in water uses a hull to float and is powered by twin jets.
It is one of several schemes which could be used to replace a ferry service between Renfrew and Yoker, which is to be scrapped by Strathclyde Partnership for Transport in March to save money.

Oh man we could have these run from rochester to toronto and make a killing…

Don’t think they would survive the waves on Ontario.

Awesome idea!

i <3 how the volume goes to 11.

noticed that too.

Even if it could it would only take about 3 days. lol

lets call it the obama free healthcare & stimulus bus, drive around and fill with poor people, then head out and drop them off in Toronto

Or the middle of the lake :tup:
Make it like the Metro Rail, “Proof of payment required beyond this point” :lol:
