Two tractors and trailers and a bus

[Grimer]

Designed in LDD and now made real. Found a small error while building, now corrected.

The side dumper works, but it's bi-stable; Partially dumped it will fall over. It's simply too top heavy for the rocking rear axle.

Colour matched with the bus stop.

Very nice; I like the concept of the 4-wide bus, but it seems too narrow. I like the tractors, though!

Yes, it's impractically small for the passengers, but it's supposed to be a small bus for 10-15 passengers, not a regular city bus. It's pretty easy to make wider though, and I'll try that as now I've got a 6-wide ambulance which I didn't have when I designed it.

Elegant is the word I'd use. I love it how you matched the overalls with colour of the tractor, they are both red right? i am red-green colour blind so could be making a public fool of myself.

It has me hoping that talk/speculation of a future farm line that's not duplo will come out in the next year or two is true. I can see the sets now, the barn complete with haystack and farmer's daughter, oh get your mind out of the gutter people, she's just milking a cow

Nice cute design, Reminds me of tugs at airports The bus is also a nice redesign of old busses.
