London Bus Sculpture Trail

2014 is the 'Year of the Bus'. I don't know why it's the year of the bus nor who decided it was, I might decided to call 2015 the 'Year of Cute Little Red Dragons' and see who goes along with it. Anyway, as part of The Year of the Bus there are 60 model buses being placed around London to form trails. Lots of artists and designers have come up with designs for these buses, the basic model is the new Route Master, to showcase the role of Buses in London (you can tell I'm reading the publicity blurb as I'm not really sure what its all about).

This bus is inspired by Buckingham Palace. It is the work of Mandii Pope, an artist from New Zealand, and is outside Transport for London offices on Victoria Street. I resisted the urge to wear a big black wig and play guitar when I got on the top.
