Double-Decker Buses * USA - Hit Streets of San Francisco
San Francisco’s MUNI transit agency - like others in Las Vegas and Seattle - is using the two-story vehicle in regular serviceSan Francisco,CAL,USA -Winding Road, by Evan McCausland -January 10, 2008: -- ... We’d already heard the agency was testing an Alexander Dennis Enviro 500 low-floor double-decker bus, but these are the first photos we’ve seen of them in use...
