It surprises me a great deal that they are now removing the words SAN FRANCISCO on the sides of the open top E500s. They used to be there the last time I was in the Bay Area:

Can any one explain why they started removing the SAN FRANCISCO signs?

P.S. I miss the Bay Area a great deal..

But the open-top E500 operator in San Francisco seems to be enjoying excellent business despite the economic turmoil and fierce competition in the tour bus business (there are at least four open-top operators in SF). I was in the Bay Area for more than seven months this year and each time I traveled downtown, I could easily spot open top E500s with at least 20 passengers on the upper deck.

Btw, did the OP picture any of the ex-Londong Big Bus Leyland Titans now operated by CitySightseeing but still wearing Big Bus livery? They started to get CitySightseeing signs towards August this year but I never managed to count the numer of ex-Big Bus Titans in service before leaving the area.:Q
