Opened by Tim Lasater, the #19 is a blazing red double-decker bus - the only factory made double-decker bus in America - situated on the corner of 6th and San Marcos Street at the East Side Drive-In in East Austin. Come try our signature item: a monstrous cheese-steak topped with sauteed green and red peppers, onions, mushrooms, and white American cheese. The bus' name actually comes from the Clash song "Rudie Can't Fail":
...on the route of the 19 Bus!
hear them... sayin'
How you get a rude and a-reckless?
Don't you be so crude and a feckless
You been drinking brew for breakfast
Rudie can't fail!
The #19 Bus is situated at the corner of E. 6th Street and San Marcos - at the East Side Drive-In in East Austin.
