loved riding this dart on saturday, got some decent trashes on my channel

What a pure rocket! 🚀

Yutong kickdowns r very rare does the new tongs in Wales don't have Kik downs on most of them only like 5% of them

Break sound like Volvo 9700

0:00 and 1:40🚆

Passed my test in one of the GNE Volvo Nationals, and drove them in service. Lovely buses

I enjoy the rides up to harrogate then on to ripon🙂🙂🙂🙂

What model is the ZF Gearbox? Is it a 4 or 5 Speed? Nice kickdown and this B6 sounds a nice beast

Bains still going strong not many family bus operators left good to see

Splash/16965 (the bus in this video) is still in service and Stagecoach have recently been loaning him and his sister Lolly (16962) to the Skegness depot constantly. The reason behind this is because the old Tridents were recently replaced by Enviro 400 Hybrids from Manchester- and the hybrids had to be constantly towed back to the depot due to them breaking down all the time. I rode Splash back in May but he had hoovering fans. Didn't bother me tho, i actually found it very amusing listening to the obnoxiously loud hoover like some B7TLs have! 😆😆😆 However, i did wear some ear protection, JUST INCASE. 🤣 Also, i really love that announcement chime at 0:14

I’m really confused why they have added 54 to Stagecoach because it’s so bizarre that it only runs in weekdays and Saturdays evenings and runs pretty much all day on Sunday? Why is this? Btw lovley video :)

❤ the ride!

Now that this service is back, I'm thinking about taking it one day, but with the frequency and where I live, it's sadly unlikely. Thankfully these videos exist so I can see what it would have looked like

What lovely quality

Got to love the classic Scania sound ❤

In Jamaica we have that type of bus the only difference is that the back door is on the left side and the engine is a B7R

This bus is my school bus lol

the 643 used to run from whickham to Westerhope in early 90s by Andersons of Westerhope when andersons finished ok travel took over the 643 from Newcastle to whickham

Not a trident it’s a. E40D

VLT217 is a routemaster registration from RM217

Weather's certainly wet and miserable but a ride, on one of these vintage golden oldies surely cheered everyone on board up?

Fantastic video!

Usually on 4 speed Metrobuses you have to floor them then take your foot off the throttle to make it go into 4th but this one doesn't do it.

Nice video, how long did you wait to claim the front seats. I was there with 20 minutes wait and there was already a queue! So unfortunately, I couldn't film this.

This bus was new to Lothian Buses plc as 804 in 2006 delivered in the company's simplified version of the harlequin livery (with a red bottom skirt) with a light blue top for services 37/47/X47 branded as "Penicuik City Link" which it carried until it was repainted into the 2010 version of the classic livery with a turquoise top for the same routes with historical branding called "The Pen-Y-Cog" in early 2011. In 2015, it was newly repainted into the normal fleet livery after losing its Pen-Y-Cog route branding and 2019, it was transferred to Longstone where it spent its final days in service with Lothian before its departure from the fleet the same year.

E38 is a fucking monster. Always was. I had a run on 320 when it run at Orpington and to say it was maxed is an understatement. This thing climbs hills like they aren't there.

Looking good trains

1 year later this bus has taken an unfortunate turn for the worst. The engine is constantly overheating, the belt always screams and the cooling fan sounds like a hoover 😭

WOW - very impressive!

😍❤ - really miss these beasts!

Hugely unreliable but glad one did make it to preservation.

Silent beast with a musical ZF! 😊

Well it's sounded like an A.E.C. REGENT MK.V fitted with an A.E C. D166 4-speed synchromesh gearbox in a very unusual strange way? Viatron had discovered.

😍!

What a beauty of a beast with a sweet ZF!

Oh my days, what a phenomenal ride! 😍❤

Cool

Still haven’t been on it

God throw back to when these dominated the streets of glasgow along with the Geminis different days them

😍!

Been up to the scrapyards today and some even came in today. They did well to last 25 yrs.

Very nice video! One question: Does the train have backup batteries for the traction motors? Because at 1:07 you can clearly see that it is operation with its pantographo lowered!

Mcv Evora engine is wonderful

Very Loud!

Basically a solo buolt for motorway ops

Amy idea what that sound is whem the coach is at speed (not road sound) as i hear it in some coaches but not others but i cant figure out what it is

Nice of XC which has some of the loudest, beastiest sounding trains to choose a coach with a loud and beaty engine

Try out the ones in Kent (KX61s) you will see garbage. But the GN14s and GN15s are better

Szegény bpi-376😭❤️ rossz látni messze az ostthonától..legalább nem lett szétvágva😢❤

Enjoyed the journey. Many thanks.
