Bus Fanning: Different But Quiet Popular Hobby in Bangladesh

It's been known to all that hobbies have different dimensions, they vary from person to person. Basically, a hobby is what comforts a person's mind and chills his heart.

Among the youngsters, we can see they are very much curious as well as interested in automotives, for example- Super cars, Heavy Duty machines like ships, super trucks, modern aeroplanes like the Antonov or The Eurofighter and the list goes on.

In Bangladesh, the love for automotives has promoted to a whole new level- Bus Fanning. They call it as "Mechanical emotion for buses".

Most probably, back in 2011, the trend of Bus Fanning took its very first step through a Facebook group called "BUS LOVER". There is also another giant group titled as "BUSES & COACHES" which is now the largest group on Facebook involved in bus loving as a hobby. Both groups are having their own FB groups and pages with thousands of members & followers.

So what do they actually do?

Ummm.... they capture photos of buses, visit bus body fabrication workshops, give updates on upcoming buses from different coach operators, suggests new paint jobs for the buses, update new routes etc. Bus fans have invented a new title, "Packet Bus", for the brand new automobiles coming outta workshops.

Bus Fanning has now become so widespread that mass people are also joining these groups just to keep themselves updated about the best luxury as well as the best service providers of their respective routes. So, don't you think it is an interesting hobby to do??
