80s Winnipeg Transit Video



Here's a cute musical PSA from the 80s that blatantly rips off Yellow Submarine and turns it into a song about how riding on the bus is so great. I think it's kind of funny how the use of the song draws parallels to the psychedelic movie as if they're trying to communicate riding the Winnipeg Transit is akin to the nutzoid characters in the Yellow Submarine movie? Either way, it's very fitting.

Thanks to Clint for the submission.

    This is actually from a local 80's children's show called S'kiddle Bits. It's the host, Joey Gregorash, singing the song.

    The driver on the left with no hat (during the chorus) still works at Transit as a driver
