On the Buses
The rest of my Shapeways order was made up with an old NZR road services bus.
Apart from being a bit on the thick side, its a good model. I think that the glazing should be put in but quite thin so that the people who want to be able to see into their bus can remover it, and the rest of us can just paint it. My pan for this model is to trundle round a road somewhere on a MMW module.
So, will it fit on the Tomytec bus chassis?
The rear end is OK (width wise as well) though the wheels are a wee bit small. the steering bit at the front is a problem, but a look and a think reveals that I should be able to modify it by separating it from the rest and doing some surgery.

How will you put the glazing in? a strip of shirt box lid across all the windows inside, or each window cut and shaped to fit in the holes?
in one piece for each side. Cutting out the individual windows seems like a bad idea to me.
Happy New Year!
Have you got the motor to fit?
No. I have done a stack of gardening and replaced a fence though.
This gardening sounds like its consuming valuable modeling time, and the fence risks diverting scarce modeling funds.
bus goin' yet?
latest bus and chassis from Tomytec is in 1/160, but has head and tail lights and lithium ion rechargeable battery using usb cable. also adjustable chassis for length. Hopefully they will adopt this method for their Japanese chassis
