They have a wide range of scripts that are manually painted to the sides to indicate the main streets or avenues the route includes.
Styles vary from combi to combi, even in the same company, as I believe they hire different letterers for the job.
I'm working on a little project to make some of them into a font set called Combi Stylus & I created a flickr set to show my inspiration sources.
This one is my FontStruct version for the set & it needs a lot of kerning, but well...

Based on a 1.78 filter so the rounded corner squares would fit with the quarter circles. Diagonals end up narrowing the inside lines, so I tried to used them as less as possible.

I had the original concept for this one a while ago, but was not satisfied with the dots on the i and j, so I tweaked the filters a bit to set them at the same height as the ascends.
I recommend using it at really big sizes so it won't lose detail, since letter spacing is so narrow to balance the dot distance.
Only Spanish Glyphs LC so far, plus some basic punctuation.
