Bus Etching Problem
Helen Deborah Vecht wrote to uk.transport.london on Tue, 21 Dec 2004:
I think the only thing that would stop graffitti / etching /seat slashing is the presence of enough staff to prevent such actions. This is expensive. I was on a bus this morning that had adopted a solution I sincerely hope doesn't become widespread - it had some kind of net over the windows, from the outside they looked red, but from inside it was mesh, and you simply couldn't see out very well. After five minutes I felt so sick I had to go and sit downstairs - at that stage, luckily, I was the only person on the bus (137), so could find a seat where I could see out of the front window. Please, please, don't let them do that on more buses...... -- "Mrs Redboots" http://www.amsmyth.demon.co.uk/ Website updated 18 December 2004 |

That stuff is there for your protection. as the Fougasse cartoon poster had it. Are they providing it as an anti-blast measure on the quiet? -- Terry Harper, Web Co-ordinator, The Omnibus Society 75th Anniversary 2004, see http://www.omnibussoc.org/75th.htm E-mail: URL: http://www.terry.harper.btinternet.co.uk/ |
