Ikarus 280.59 #2412
24 april 2015 - 2412 on line 119 at Kremikovtzi metalworks terminus. Line 119 makes 6 additional trips to Kremikovtzi on workdays and 2 trips on weekends. Regular trips of the line are served to Botunets quarter. Kremikovtzi was Bulgaria`s largest metalworking company. The construction of its facilities began on 5 November 1960 and the first production capacities were put into operation in 1963 to produce cast iron and coke, with production extending to cover other areas in the 1960s and 1970s. After a controversial privatisation in 1999 and years of deliberate draining by the new private owners, Kremikovtzi finally declared bankruptcy in 2009. 2412 is one of the last Ikarus buses still in service in Sofia. It is said that all remaining Ikarus buses will be decommissioned this summer.

23 october 2019 - Recently restored 2412 became the center point in a propaganda event organized by the Ministry of Regional Development and Public Works, which was intended to convince the public how much the Ministry`s work has changed Bulgaria with the help of EU funds. While officials told vivid and heartfelt stories of success, 3D mapping projections showcased photographs of projects financed by the EU on the body of the Ikarus. The event culminated in an attractive 6-minute video. The bus itself was wrapped in white vinyl to make the projections more visible. Hopefully the wrap won`t damage the brand new paint.
