Spidey Bus

Batman has his Batmobile, Wonder Woman has her Invisible Jet, Superman has his, ummm, cape, and now, Spiderman has his Spidey Bus.

Actually, this is one of the buses we use to transport workers from areas outside of downtown Korat. As the business grew from 250 - 750 workers, we couldn't find enough skilled operators locally, and had to provide busing to villages as far away as 50 miles.

The bus company we use, along with most other companies like it, have added a little color to their vehicles, which must be over 30 years old. Driving along the highways in Thailand before 8 am and after 5 pm , you can see hundreds of these buses going to and from factories and industrial estates. Looks a bit like a Partridge Family or Merry Pranksters Convention.

The artwork (if you can call it that) on the buses at my factory are not the best examples, so I'll try to get some more pictures and add them in a future installment. In the meantime, here are some pics. Enjoy.
