Like it or loathe it, here is today's London newspaper report of a
full-size "Boris Bus" intended to succeed the Routemaster:

The prototype hasn't got an engine.

Maybe they can put an electric motor in it, and supply the power from
a couple of wires strung above the streets?

By the looks of it there isn't anywhere practical to put an engine unless
it'll be in the middle somewhere with some ugly hump in the passenger
