Malta - Mdina - Buses 05

From WIkipedia : "Early buses wore an olive green livery with a black stripe. In the 1930s, buses were painted different colours according to the route they operated. Malta buses are now liveried in a yellow (lower) and white (upper) livery, relieved by a red band just below the window line.

 

All Malta buses are single-deckers either with bus or coach bodies. Early buses do not have many common transit bus features, with route numbers achieved using white cards. Later buses have modern features, such as electronic destination displays, although paradoxically full use is almost never made of the more modern facilities and buses almost always show the route number, but no indication of the destination."
