Glasgow’s new $1.5 million amphibious bus fails first swim test
February 8th, 2010
Sounds like a nice idea. An amphibious bus that can travel on water and roads. Sadly (or comically if you prefer) it was grounded, less than an hour after it got wet.
The $1.5 million Dutch-made “amfibus” was being demonstrated for service between Renfrew and Yoker when things went pear shaped. Mechanics are hoping to have it swimming again by tomorrow.
In theory, it runs like a normal bus on land, but uses two water jets to carry 50 passengers at speeds up to eight knots in the water.
