Dry Patches On My Body

Rieti: last ran the old means

The city of Rieti has always been very "famous" for us fans to the park by means of the local public transport (ASM Company Municipal Services). Up to now in fact have moved many buses 80 and 90 years and during peak times such as school trips, both during the dead time, such as holidays.


All lines depart from Piazza Cavour, except a line that makes bus service to nearby Monte Terminillo. During school time comes the only (for now) 18-meter articulated buses.
Small curiosity: in Rieti, unlike most Italian firms TPL, we stand by the central doors and down the side doors. I must say that this system works very well and I have not seen any passenger "break" this rule. Unfortunately, by the end of the current fleet will rejuvenate a lot, with eco-friendly buses and more modern than those that run in those days. Here's some 'photos:


IVECO 471.10.20 U-effeuno PORTES ex SASA BOLZANO

the mid-90's acquired by the ASM SASA di Bolzano This effeuno Portesi short by 10.5 meters. It is used more on school schedules, but it is also likely to meet during the hours dead. Inside you can still find the entries in bilingual and even the "STOP BOOK" also in two languages. With the arrival Unfortunately, the new media will be removed from service.

BREDAMENARINI 230 MU ex AGRIGENTO

In 2009, ASM buys directly from Sicily, Agrigento precisely, a BMB230 MU, which aimed to replace the 409 car accident a few days. Apart from the old bus (Inbus, effeuno and Menarini), even with this new purchase does not put the new livery was blue-gray-red, leaving the classic orange ministry. Today this car lies in the store without the rear wheels. Perhaps for this purchase, the company has been a real flop ...

IVECO 471.12.20 U-effeuno

effeuno now the ASM can be easily noticed, as almost always running, even on holidays. Originally there were 3 machines, mat. 408, 409, 410, dated 1985 and beginning with the original black plate, but the 409 car was involved in an accident with a car which road to avoid it, you bumped into a tree. They too are destined to a better life with the imminent arrival of new buses.

IVECO 480.12.21 TURBOCITY-U

Between 1989 and 1990 come in 5 ASM 480 Iveco Turbocity: 4 vetture corte 10.5 metri e una lunga 12 metri 4 porte. Dotate tutte di cambio ZF, i turbocity sono stati, come per tantissime aziende dove sono stato, gli autobus migliori del parco che, grazie alla loro manegevolezza e fluidità, riuscivano a fare viaggi senza alcun problema nè per gli autisti, nè per i passeggeri. Purtroppo anche loro lasceranno il posto ai nuovi mezzi. Peccato, perchè nonostate i 20 anni di vita, ancora viaggiavano alla grande.

INBUS U210 FT ex SASA BOLZANO

Ecco un'altro acquisto di ASM da parte di SASA Bolzano. Sono arrivati in 3 (mat. 412-413-414) e anche loro, come per l'Effeuno Portesi, hanno written within the bilingual and stop Booked in bilingual, and the classic red seats typical of Bolzano. Unfortunately, too, with the arrival of new media, will end their career.

Menarini 201 / 0 LU ex TRAM RIMINI

In 2003 they arrive, unexpectedly, a 4 Menarini 201 / 0 LU in 1979 by TRAM Rimini. One of them, namely the car in 2003, has never joined, in fact until 2009 was used for spare parts, while the other three have toured regularly until June 2009. Today, all 3 cars are shelved in the warehouse waiting for their fate, although they are still in good state.

BREDAMENARINI 240 LU

Towards the beginning of the 2000s into service new BMB240 LU, to replace the old Fiat 470 and 418. They too are fairly easy to meet, because they are used, such as effeuno, even on holidays. They are the only modern buses in the Lazio to have 4-door style ATC Bologna to speak, with two central doors to move forward.

BREDAMENARINI 240L AVANCITY

In 2007, ASM buys environmentally friendly bus. Even their original, in the BMB AVANCITY ASM are 3: one (pictured) diesel euro 4, and the remaining 2 to methane. Unlike other bmb240, the AVANCITY only have 3 doors and entry / exit is reversed (you enter at the sides and down the middle).

IVECO 471.18.24 U-effeuno SEAC-VIBERTI

is the only articulated ASM. This is the only 18 meters effeuno bodywork Viberti Lazio and, ultimately, only in Italy, after the radiation of Florence and Genoa. Exit only during school hours, making the run of 13:05 on the line 633. E 'exchange with Voith Diwa 851. With the arrival of new vehicles, this car will be the only one left in service.
