The 70’s were an era when there was more possible than at any other time in human history. This was not so much in reality but in fiction. Modern science was just spreading its wings and those were the times when those who knew bits and pieces of latest technology blew it up to make tons of Hollywood trash that would be fit for the bins. Here is one of those concepts that surely will never make it on to the roads but did make it on to the streets of Hollywood- Nuclear Power-Powered Bus!


The Big Bus was the movie which was a comedy about a huge bus called Cyclops moved with nuclear energy and would travel from New York to Denver without stopping. The bus was pompous and had two floors where they had wings with pool, track, bowling, restaurant and piano bar. Moreover it had self-cleaning tyres! Now the usual plot is the bad Oil-Crazy dudes blow up the brakes and everyone is in danger before a happy finish.

It seems people are now taking an inspiration from the disastrous movie and are having a designing contest called ‘The Bus Atomic’. The contest is all about designing the best possible bus for modern road and it has nothing to do with Nuclear Power. Now who could have imagined that such a horrible flick would produce an automobile design contest!
