Why are you making loads of unneeded threads... There is a thread for this here: http://wmbusphotos.com/forum/index.php?topic=1701.0

Not to do with Omsi 2 but to do with the buses. Do the D85 still run today??

It'd be better to use the actual thread here: http://wmbusphotos.com/forum/index.php?topic=1701.0

But, to answer your question, I tried translating the German article on Wikipedia and they were still in use in Berlin as of 2011, although some are now used for city tours in Berlin and elsewhere. I'm pretty sure that they aren't in normal service anymore though.

Were these buses only used in Germany then?

I've seen photos of a few operating as tour buses in Poland, and I recall seeing a photo of one in Czechia too.
