And also, the bus in the film "The Big Bus" is a double decker bendy bus (and nuclear powered too!). http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0074205/ Because Bendy-Buses can accommodate more people Hang on - how does a single-decker bendy accommodate more people than a double-decker bendy? I'd have thought the double-decker version would accomodate roughly twice as many! I think everyone who has replied has interpreted what you said as meaning "Why not use double deckers instead of bendy buses?". The idea of a double decker bendy bus obviously seems quite strange! Personally, I'd like to see one, although whether I'd like to travel in it is another matter! -- message by Robin May-Silk and his close friend, Robert Kilroy-Kotton "GIVE IN!
