| Local buses in most towns in Upper Egypt are provided by 2.5 litre diesel-powered vans with locally-built bodies.
Standard fittings are parallel rows of seats on each side of the body, push-bell calls to the driver to stop (supplemented by a shout), and grab rails at the rear for tose who want to hang on the rear platform. British ministry inspectors would have kittens.....! |
