Jale ◊ 2009-07-29 22:55	Yes, 01 was for SU. http://hu.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ikarus_260
Weasel1984 ◊ 2009-07-30 15:29	Ok, I'll add it to the others.
Jale ◊ 2009-07-30 15:55	But carefully Russian versions: 260.01 - exported to Russia 1973-1984 (first series only for Ukraina, Belarus, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia and bigger cities of Russia, like Leningrad or Moscow); windows like in picture 260.17 - ? 260.27 - exported to Russia 1981-1988; two doors 260.36 - ? 260.37 - exported to Russia 1984-1991; it's modernized 260.01, wiht all windows open in 1/2 (not 1/4, like in 260.01) 260.50 - from 1990, another modernisation, but inside - new seats, new cabin http://gortransport.kharkov.ua/routes/ps.php?ps_id=18
Weasel1984 ◊ 2009-07-30 16:00	So I'will have to correct the 260.37. In other countries (at least some) the "1/2 sliding" windows were avialable since 1975. Edit: About the 260 from the pic. In fact it can be indeed a new 1980 bus. I didn't notice the badge, which was used since ca 1977. -- Last edit: 2009-07-31 17:40:49
