Buses of Nice, France - April 2013

Post by Mr OC Benz »

I was in Nice earlier in April 2013. Quite an enjoyable place to catapult yourself around the whole bus network. All fares in the area are €1 and you could travel as far as you want to places even 2 hours away. If you were within the city boundaries of Nice, you could also use more value tickets such as a 1 day ticket for €4 or a 7 day ticket for €15. Great place to explore an intercity bus network.

So anyways, here is a selection of photos out of this album where you'll find more, and even more from different cities: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set ... 909&type=3

Cool shots, the rear of Irisbus Citalis 18 looks very similar to our own Iveco Citalis 18 TP3002, but the front looks nothing like it?
Sad sad days with seas and seas of silver sh!t :evil:

The front is the Citelis own front unlike 3002 which has a Custom Coaches front. The rear on 3002 is directly modelled from the Citelis rear.

They were all in service in April 2013, don't think it has changed.
