MTR Admiralty Posted April 21, 2009 Share #1 Posted April 21, 2009 After we heard many stories about each other's handles and signatures... how about, let's here stories about each other's avatars. Why did you choose your avatar? Let me start with mine: My avatar is the MTR logo. That's the carrier of the heavy rail lines in Hong Kong. Yours?

INDman Posted April 21, 2009 Share #9 Posted April 21, 2009 I always thought the 60's TA logo was the best logo the system has ever had. The two tones "M" is a close second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Qns Blvd Dom Posted April 22, 2009 Share #12 Posted April 22, 2009 I happen to like that Red and Cream paint job on the former Triboro Coach MCI Classic. Also The Classics are 1 of my favorite bus models of all time! Not to mention I had a very interesting experience riding 1 on the QM12 where there was no A/C so all the windows where open and the B/O decided to go over the 59 St Bridge Upper Level at about 55-60 MPH WITH THE FRONT DOOR OPEN! It really created some nice wind inside the bus!:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
