Bob, interesting report. I presume this is the Mercedes bus trial that 
has been going for some years.  Was there any comment on the lifetime of 
the fuel cells. According to my son's father in law Mercedes were still 
not getting an economic llifetime the last he heard about a year ago.
It might well be that busses could stand a shorter lifetime than cars.
I think John said the current lifetime is about 30,000 to 50,000 Kms.
In a bus fleet they could probably set up a workshop to recondition the 
fuel cells.
