End of an era: Last diesel-run double-decker bus of Mumbai drives into history

As Mumbaikars bid farewell to the final diesel-powered double-decker bus operated by the Brihanmumbai Electric Supply and Transport (BEST) undertaking, commuters and staff members fondly recalled their experiences aboard this iconic red vehicle that had become synonymous with the city itself.

“Hello, Mumbai Police? I’d like to report the theft of one of my most important childhood memories,” wrote industrialist Anand Mahindra on ‘X’, echoing the loss felt by many Mumbaikars. The bus started its final trip on route 415 from the Andheri railway station to SEEPZ village in the western suburbs around 11.05 pm on Friday.
