The ROBOT BUS--The Bus with the Mechanical Brain!


This is a first for me--looking around on the internet for something new to write about, I discovered this item: From Woodhaven Metal Stamping Co., Brooklyn NY, USA. A 1950 Tin-litho ROBOT BUS, Model #300. It's their interpretation of a transit bus of the era. It was also made in an "Airport Bus" edition. Notes passenger capacity, standees and even shows a farebox next to the driver. Rich, bright colors. This coach measures over 14 inches long. It has a clockwork mechanism and black rubber tires. Winding key is permanently attached.
