Jon Searles' photos with the keyword: Karosa

In spite of the diesel locomotives rumbling around the yard on this particular day, the regular local trains from Prague were mostly being terminated in Senohraby, with replacement buses connecting passengers to points south. Most of the buses were old Karosas like this one, borrowed from DPP. Technically, Cercany isn't in DPP's territory, although it is in Zone 2 of PID. I don't really understand DPP's numbering system for buses. I have to assume it's seperate from the trams when it comes to vehicle numbers and not service numbers, as technially 7226 should be a Tatra T3SU tram if the system were universal.

The snows came to Prague relatively early in 2007, almost coinciding with Halloween, but it was wet snow, and while the snowstorms continued into November, particularly in the mountains in other parts of the Czech Republic, the winter of 2007-2008 was abnormally warm, with snow only in October, November, and the end of March, at least in Prague. This shot in Sidliste Haje, incidentally also gives a perspective on Haje that I haven't succeeded in giving before, looking north, with not only Communist-era "Panelak" apartment blocks, but also a Communist-era Karosa bus. The Metro station is hidden off to the right of the photo.
