To my surprise these are a very superior quality buses if not exact but a close replica of the Volvo buses. I really used to relish those comfortable drives on Volvo buses in Sweden with beautiful people around.
Equally pleasant ride was the one on TATA AC bus called Marcopolo in Bangalore. With these buses spreading in every city, Indian traffic will soon see the days of calmness and safety. Without compromising the quality, the fares are nominal to compete with the existing auto-rikshaws.
One of the great features I liked in the Volvo buses was the STOP buttons located behind seats and various rods in the bus. If anyone wants to get down he simply presses one of them and the driver would stop the bus at the next bus stop. Interestingly, TATA has designed exactly similar buttons in their bus giving it a fancy look. The door opening mechanism and place for cradles/wheelchair is also similarly built.
Seats appear quite comfortable; if only they can withstand the huge population pressure and remain well maintained.
An indigenous solution to indigenous problem. Good Luck TATA !! Good luck India.

Can anyone recommend the robust Endpoint Security tool for a small IT service company like mine? Does anyone use Kaseya.com or GFI.com? How do they compare to these guys I found recently: N-able N-central remote pc software
? What is your best take in cost vs performance among those three? I need a good advice please... Thanks in advance!
