Bus Semacode?

Could someone point me to the picture of the semacode on the bus, and any others that are around. I have searched but it hasn't been succesful.

On the wiki there is a link to the players gallery...which apart from some pictures of extremely attractive individuals (and one really unattractive one) has an abbey road gallery and the picture of the semacode on the bus:

or is there some way online to decode one ?

I'm not sure who you are trouting here and why. I don't see a "what does the semacode read?" or a "is the semacode on the bus the same as the one on the postcard?" question.

I would imagine that semacode can be decoded by hand, but, at least, it can definitely be decoded online: www.semacode.org.
