Romero, where art though Romero?

I think this was Vila Real again right in the far South-West corner of Portugal where a dusty Spain beckoned across the Rio Guadlana a short ferry crossing away. Today a modern bridge spans the wide estuary but somehow not only does progress make the world smaller one place quickly becomes very much the same as the next and apart from livery even the bus and coaches become alike. Way back in 1984 two coaches built in their respective countries seemed world's apart with the still new Caetano bodied Scania tourist coach from Portugal looking modern and built to a demanding North European Standard whereas the 'domestic' Spanish coach probably a Pegaso with only information boards and numbered 25 in the Romero fleet looks old fashioned and to me a bit like it's come off badly in a bull fight with fallen arches and with on it's radiator a bit of metalwork reminding me of those teasing daggers thrust through a bull's neck making this poor coach look even more sad and dejected. I'm sorry about the William Shakespeare pun, maybe instead I should have said as the Spanish coach distorts my sense of reality looked like something from a Picasso painting 'of weeping women' but you might not have believed me. Either way, it's profile probably inspired by Mercedes you must agree that it was a bit of an ugly beast.
