Leather seats, solar panels and a conductor?


Leather seats are becoming increasingly common in buses, particularly
those sold as a premium service, because they both "look good" and
they are relatively cheap to maintain. (That's why Ryanair uses them
- just a quick wipe-down is needed to clean them).

But I think overall some of the runners-up seem more sensible.


I hope by runners-up you don't mean Ken!
