What's the worst public transport experience you've ever had?

Not so much traumatic as just plain fucking weird. Once, on an early morning bus on the way to university, we drove past a man twenty foot up a ladder fixing the roof of his house. A totally normal scene apart from the fact that, I swear to god, he was wearing a two foot high, black, pointy witch's hat and going about his business like it weren't no thang.
I also was sure I once saw a destination sign on the front of a bus reading "19 - HEDGEHOG" but I may have been slightly drunk so am less willing to swear it on the lives of family members.

I was walking down the road and I suddenly had this thought, wouldnt it be funny if there was a bus number 007? A minute later a bus came round the corner. And it was number 007!! I thought I was seeing stuff too!
Also some places names that busses go to can look humerous on the front of the bus, such as:
The number 13 to "Halfway" I wanna go the whole way there thank you!
The bus in Gibraltar to "Both Worlds". (woo twilight zone!)
And the old rickety Northern Busses that used to be on a "Mission"
Im sure you guys can think of plenty more!
