11 November 2008 - In the suburban services of Porto beyond plenty of products of local bodybuilders are to be seen also many secondhands from other European countries. This bus station is really full of interesting vehicles!
6 November 2007 - After passing the Tagus river you'll find a brand new light rail system in Almada, called Metro Transportes do Sul. In the background it's to be seen the density of blocks of flats in Cova Piedade and a famous monument of Christo Rei
18 Februar 2007 - Scotturb #761 at his terminal, displaying "Fora de Serviço" (Out of Service) on the display.
This is, as always, the terminal of the Buscas service (route #427), right in front of the train station.
These Citos were replaced with 3 new MAN 12.240, that had overheating problems...
19 Mai 2007 - Another bus of Joalto Group making a trip to Sintra.
Next to Joalto Mondego #7680 is Joalto Douro #8450.
Mondego and Douro are two main rivers of Portugal. Joalto uses these names in order to identify were the network base of the bus is.
15 August 2006 - I speak for my self, I would love to have a bus in my backyard...
Joalto #7431 seen at Ponte do Abade, resting for the weekend.
I love this livery in this bus... Oh yeah !...
10 April 2007 - Porto, Rua de Augusto Rosa [Terminal of Espirito Santo busses] -
I have marked this bus as owned by OFR but I'm not 100% sure...
A really beauty but perhaps a pretty old one ;-).
14 Juli 2007 - Never saw her again...
And I don't know if it has allready been scrapped...
Seen at Terrugem, resting for the weekend, under a nice but hot sun...
10 April 2007 - Vila Nova de Gaia, Cais de Gaia - in the Background, the famous "Dom Luis I"-bridge of Porto which upper level is used by lightrail and pedestrians while the lower lever is for pedestrians,cars and busses.
15 Juli 2007 - Mafrense #0236 headed for Mafra, crossing Cheleiros.
Underneath the bridge, we found the Lizandro river anda an old and historic bridge.
3 März 2008 - In the most busiest terminal in Lisbon, where urbans routes get mixed with suburb and regional ones. At Campo Grande !
Former Mafrense #0280 on route to Ericeira, on a direct service (one hour trip).
After trying a Lion's Regio, Mafrense decided to buy 2 Neoplan Trendliner...
28 Dezember 2007 - Photo taken on the Estrada Nacional 226 (a National Route), just a few seconds before it turns onto EN 323, headed to Viseu, coming from Moimenta da Beira.
26 Dezember 2006 - Viseu, Praça da Republica. Main square of Viseu... Impossible to miss it !
We can see #26 from Berrelhas, operating a service to STUV, the local urban bus operator.
In the background an enourmous wall of tiles, very typicall in Portugal since the XVI century.
16 September 2008 - An O405 NÜ from EVA headed to Albufeira. Seen near Poço de Boliqueime on a not so famous national route, the EN 125.
Albufeira is mostly knowned by it's night life during the hot summer night's.
And let me say to you that buses without any window hat may be opened leaves me almost claustrophofic...
19 Mai 2007 - And here it is the other form of Cito that Scotturb once have.
This photo was taken only a few months before they were withdrawn from the Scotturb fleet.
It shows 752 at São Pedro (one of the oldest parts of Sintra).
Ah ! Don't be scared with the colors from the photo, it's due to the fog that fall over Sintra.
22 April 2007 - Resting on the weekend under a nice cool shade at Montelavar, a small village beetween Sintra and Mafra.
Nowadays, she doesn't park here anymore...
The seats are made of wood, wich makes this bus very suitable to carry young and missbehaved students... :)
19 Mai 2008 - Lisboa, R. do Limeiro. Korek tramwajowy spowodoway zle zaparkowanym samochodem. Coprawda lusterko samochodu bylo zlozone, ale mimo tego bylo to jeszcze pare milimetrów za duzo przez co tramwaj nie mógl przejechac. Trwalo to dosyc dlugo, tak ze w pelnym turystów tramwaju zaczela sie juz prawie rozwijac impreza. Grupa turystów nawet próbowala przsunac samochód(VW Multivan) sila reczna, niestety byl troche za ciezki.
21 Januar 2007 - Porto. Avenida de Fernão Magalhães. W pobliżu wyjazdu z tunelu Antas. Nieopodal Estádio do Dragão, na którym swoje mecze rozgrywa FC Porto.
22 August 2007 - Porto, Praça de Gonçalvez Zarco. Z lewej strony Castelo do Queijo (Zamek Serowy) - fort wzniesiony na skałach nad brzegiem oceanu. W tym miejscu znajduje się duże rondo i węzeł linii autobusowych. Ulicą wiodącą wzdłuż brzegu (Avenida de Montevideu) i obsadzoną palmami dochodzi tu nieużywane torowisko, którym mogłaby jeździć jedna z najbardziej malowniczych linii tramwajowych w Europie. Fakt, że takiej linii nie ma, daje jaskrawy przykład tego, jak barbarzyńsko Portugalczycy potraktowali transport szynowy w swoim mieście.
26 Januar 2007 - Lizbona - Belém. Rua Bartolomeu Dias. Dzielnica Belém słynie z wielu zabytków i znanych pomników, a jeździ do niej jedyna linia obsługiwana przez "niezabytkowy" tabor - czyli 15.
18 Mai 2006 - Lizbona, Belem. Stolica Portugalii to nie tylko sympatyczne, malutkie wagoniki - to także poważne tramwaje od Siemensa :) Jeżdżą wprawdzie tylko na 15 (bo gdzie indziej się nie mieszczą) i tylko do ok 21 (później zastępują je tradycyjne pojazdy). Zdjęcie lekko krzywe, ale mogłem je prostować wg znaku ;)
8 Mai 2000 - Lizbona, Praça Cais do Sodre. Lekko zmodyfikowana portugalska odmiana Mercedesa O405N. Większość z widocznych tu torów tramwajowych jest nieczynna i poodcinana :-(
7 Mai 2000 - Porto, Campo dos Martires da Patria. Te klimaciarskie autobusy odchodzą już w przeszłość. Zastępowane są przez nowe Citara lub importowane używki.
