Boris Johnson, the Mayor of London, was on hand at the London Transport Museum today to unveil his city's future of public transportation. A full-size mock-up of the bus was on display and the design is clearly a nod to the past. Modeled after the original Routemaster, this updated double-decker brings the style into the 21st century while keeping touches of the old bus' charm. The new bus, which is being manufactured by Wrightbus, features an open platform in the rear, which marks the return of the traditional hop-on-hop-off service.

Quickly moving from rendering and video to this mock-up, the first Wrightbus prototype is scheduled to be delivered next year. After that, five production buses will enter service in 2012, just in time for the Olypmics. Check it out in the gallery below or watch the video after the jump.

Carl Edwards Wins Texas Nationwide Race as Brad Keselowski Clinches Title

Filed under: , , , , ,

The backflip is back, and the kid won the title.

As Carl Edwards held off Kyle Busch to win the Nationwide race Saturday at Texas Motor Speedway, Brad Keselowski (right) clinched the Nationwide championship with a third-place finish.

It was the first major NASCAR title for the racing for car owner Roger Penske as well as the Keselowski family, a venerable Michigan racing clan.

"Thank you guys so much," the 26-year-old Keselowski told his crew on the radio after taking the checkered flag.

"Great job, buddy," Penske said from the grandstand roof, where he was spotting. "Great job, champion.

"First off, it's a family accomplishment," Keselowski said afterwards. "My mom, my dad, my uncle, they made so many sacrifices along the way and put up with me when I got in trouble. I'm so very fortunate and blessed to have this opportunity."
