antp ◊ 2006-04-11 21:01	Probably true, as the two thumbnails show a well-known monument from Brussels, "Le cinquantenaire" few pictures -- Last edit: 2006-04-11 21:01:41

antp ◊ 2006-04-11 21:46	Yes I already went there few times. It is not far from where I live (as Brussels is not very big). I live in the north-west, and when I go to the east/nort-east of the city, and I pass under it (in a tunnel that pass under it, but the monument is visible just before entering the tunnel) .

Can you check if the bus is still running and ask the driver what it is?
antp ◊ 2006-04-28 14:45	for sure it is not running. Maybe that it is in some museum. But I only know where is the tramway museum, I do not know where old busses can be seen.
antp ◊ 2006-04-28 14:49	Actually it seems that this museum is not only for tram See on that page : http://www.stib.irisnet.be/FR/52000f.htm The bus looks similar but there is not much info on their site

The chassis were manufactured before WWII by Brossels, Bovy & Pipe in Brussels, then hidden from the Nazis and finished to complete buses after the war. -> http://www.johnveerkamp.com/Belgie/MIVB/model02.html -> http://users.skynet.be/transiris -> http://users.skynet.be/transiris/musee/ab6ds.htm
antp ◊ 2006-04-28 19:29	Nice, so I won't have to go to the museum
sixcyl ◊ 2006-04-28 20:34	Nice find, and thank's for the links
mm ◊ 2006-04-28 21:24	@ Antoine - But the museum could be a nice weekend trip, anyway, for a car freak. The museum web pages contained a subtle hint on the make - it was hidden in the PDF description... @ Jean-Marc - De rien.
sixcyl ◊ 2006-04-28 23:54	Nice Idea, for IMCDB meeting in Brussel!... Antoine you must think of it ... -- Last edit: 2006-04-28 23:55:09
antp ◊ 2006-04-28 23:59	Yes, it could be a good idea. There is also Autoworld museum, at the Cinquantenaire actually
jplemoine ◊ 2006-04-29 15:49	Rendez-vous à prendre et thème de discussion pour le W.E prochain. Et même si quelques extra-européens peuvent venir...
88inch ◊ 2007-02-27 15:29	the main pictures was taken in the famous Cogels-Osylei in Berchem (Antwerp). This Brossel AB-6DS is still in running order and part of the MTUB collection in Brussels. Worthwhile a visit!
