I had the distinct ... erm ... pleasure of riding on Roastmaster
(a.k.a. Borisbus) the other day.

I am neither a designer nor an automotive engineer, but I think that it
is safe to say that this is a poorly designed vehicle pretty much by
anybody's standards and that this is also what happens when you push
through a vanity project. Where was the oversight committee on this?

I find them quiet and comfortable and haven't been on one where it was
too hot. They really aren't that bad.

fare evasion can be rife.

I always pay my fare of course. I can't see how you can eliminate
evasion easily on these buses or the DLR.
