Bucharest's transit agency just sold for scrap some of their oldest and most iconic buses. The last Roman 112UD and Ikarus IK4 in the world, and a first generation DAC 117UD.
Bucharest and STB will be the laughing stock of the transit/bus world.
Special thanks to Mihai Radulescu for the photos and videos.
IMPORTANT NOTE!!!! After making this video, I have found out that the buses were sold for scrap. We are trying to save at least some parts and ID plates. Im not holding my breath though. It turns out these might be the last videos of these buses.
Edit Aug, 26 2021, Targu Jiu, a city that operated the oldest Romanian bus fleet will scrap every single one of their classic buses. I have tried for years to get them to sell me one, so I can preserve it, but they refuse to. So, the last of these articulated buses will be lost forever.
