Zrs

By the time the Navy started to develop a sound doctrine for using the ZRS-type airships, the last of the two built, USS Macon, had been lost.

Children in school uniform ride for free on the government buses and for $1.50 on the ZRs.

Including the ZRs, there are three bus systems running seven days a week (though less frequently on Sundays).

The smaller buses from the two privately owned systems ("ZRs" and "minibuses") can give change; the larger blue buses from the government-operated Barbados Transport Board system cannot, but do give receipts.

Transport on the island is relatively convenient with " route taxis " called "ZRs" (pronounced "Zed-Rs") travelling to most points on the island.
