Vintage buses of Malta

If you went to Malta a few years ago almost the first thing you would have seen was a yellow vintage bus that was used for public transport. I say 'vintage' but they were really antique, it seemed that as the English like to collect their antique cars, so did the Maltese collected buses. They weren't being kept somewhere in a shed but used for public transport by small companies. I hear these buses are no more there, some big international bus operator took over and the buses you see nowadays look the same as in any other European country. Which is a pity, these buses looked so unusual they could easily be advertised as a tourist attraction. For some people a ride in one of them could be like a ride on a choo-choo train. Anyway, I was there just in time to take a few pictures.
