Model: HO gauge. The Berlin double-decker made you thirsty for a drink. No doubt, this bus made you thirsty for soda! The Büssing D2U once caused an eye-catcher in its West Berlin area of ??operation. Unlike today, full-area bus designs were by no means a matter of course and also rather the exception at the BVG. The mighty letters in glowing flower power orange were embedded in a creative palm tree that heralded the exotic fruit origin of the orange lemonade. The double-decker buses probably drove past the former Berlin model making workshops of Wiking in Lichterfelde dozens of times a day - the D2U shaped the economic boom in western Berlin. Accordingly, the bus also bears the Steglitz destination sign. The characteristic double-decker buses with the filigree Büssing spider on the front stand unchanged for the years of Berlin change, which the west of the divided city also experienced and which is reflected in the advertising of the omnipresent buses.
