 The Amsterdam Bus Museum has now closed. One of the more unusual buses greeting visitors outside the Amsterdam Bus Museum on their July 1st 2001 annual Open Day, was 154 (VF-51-80) a 1966 DAF "microbus", bodied by Verheul originally in the Amsterdam Municipal fleet, GVB. It was specially designed and built for the rural area in the northern parts of Amsterdam. |
 Former GVB 157, a 1940 Kromhout city bus, bodied by Verheul. The Kromhout engine is a five cylinder ship diesel. Because of World War II, the bus only came into active service just after the War. The builders managed to keep it "in construction" during the war in order to prevent "involuntary export" to Germany. |
 City buses of a different generation are this pair of retired DAFs: 168 (01-80-MB) and 301 (AB-21-26) enjoying the outside sunshine. For years this was the well known Dutch standard city bus: former GVB 168, a 1976 DAF SB 201 and former GVB 301, a 1966 DAF SB 200 city bus (the very first for Holland!) |
