For the first time IAA Transportation in Hannover will host a "dedicated bus theme park"

IAA Transportation 2024 will take place in Hannover, Germany, from September 17 to 22. For the first time a dedicated bus theme park is planned.

It is undeniable that the bus sector has lost momentum in the context of the IAA in recent years (see our reporting from 2022 edition). Rather, many bus OEMs and providers have turned to InnoTrans, where the Bus Display in the Summer Garden has dedicated itself to the bus world. Visitors to InnoTrans, after all, come more vertically from the public transport sector than at Hanover, where freight transport and logistics have become major players. Now Hannover raises the bar.

Usa, 13 year old saves the school bus

A 13-year-old teenager saved his school bus from crashing after the driver passed out. Dillon Reeves “jumped out of his seat, threw his backpack, ran to the front of the school bus, grabbed the wheel and managed to stop” the vehicle in the middle of the road, said Robert Livernois, director of public schools in a northern Michigan district at a press conference.

There is no free ‘mystery bus’ in Brussels

A tweet with over 11,000 retweets claims that “not only is public transport free in Brussels, but they even have a bus called “Not The 48” which takes you to a mystery location if you’re feeling a bit down or you just don’t have anything to do that day”. 

The tweet shows a picture of a bus that says it is going to “Mystère” and has the number 48 on it with a red line through it. The tweet has also been shared almost 3,000 times on Facebook.

However, this isn’t true. The person who tweeted it has acknowledged that it was a joke, having also made a similar joke in 2019.

‘Mystère/Mysterie’ is a stop on the route of the 48 bus in Brussels and can also be reached by bus number 54. The stop appears to be named after a nearby street called Rue du Mystère.
