Bus Driver's POV - Night Time - ADL Enviro 200
A video I made a while back whilst working for Stagecoach London. This shows an evening view of part of the route R7.
The bus is a short wheelbase (8.9m) ADL Enviro 200. I don't remember the exact fleet number but it would have been 36581, 36582 or 36583.
Can't remember why the filming stopped at Orpington, probably the camera fell off :P

This is a video I filmed sometime last summer, and spent a fair amount of time adding all the captions. Primarily intended as a route learning guide for drivers, I'm sure it will also be of some interest to other people. It shows all road names in the bottom left hand corner, with bus stop names in the bottom right. Timing points are highlighted in red, with how the bus was running according to...

Which depot u based out off
I wonder if you're still a bus driver
Stagecoach bus
Bus drivers need a bum lift
I hate you butler😂😂😂😂😂
Old bus m8 you must have upset the inspector BLAKEY😂😂😂😂😂😂
Get a brew down you m8😂😂😂😂
Hang on - I hadn't realized this was you who are now at LC!
Interesting video! Respect for anyone who does a job where they have to deal with the public. I hope you're doing well.😊
Try being a truck driver. Working over 70 hrs a week. Sleeping in a tin can, shit pay . But at least my load doesn't talk back to me or spit at me.
Should've paid attention in school u bjm
Always see R7 on the stand when I finish work..
Needles to say I don’t give a bollox
Language
I’m a bud driver in Dublin…. Fare evasion is on an epidemic scale
It would be a good job if it had no passengers even boarding cats would be more positive 😅
Do you still drive the bus?
😂😂 I like it
❤
As a former bus driver, lot of situations with customers being rude, abusive, offensive or anti social l find happen to be awkward and daunting. For example, when someone dont want to pay the journey buisness fare then you gotta politely, calmly on top of that ask this certain someone nicely that you cant come on bus and have to kindly step off. If that same someone argues, and take seat without paying then tell them l not going nowhere, until you get off. If that someone then dont get off, you have to tell them that they now banned from stagecoach, also you will call police if they dont corporate and that make more people on you bus impatient also angry because of time delay, however sadly apart of stagecoach rules and policy means drivers have got to remain in cabin and lialise with police in these non paying loonies tresspassing times of situations, and anti social profanity times causing other customers to be upset times of day. Only time driver can leave cabin is when assisting a disabled person in wheelchair to deploy ramp, or first aid, fire emergencies. Those all in all, are three situations that lawfully permits drivers to leave cabin and that having smoke off list, going to toilet which all should be done on you brake times etc. Passengers on-board are not just customers, their driver responsibility and having handsfree device installed with bluetooth headset on you ear provided by stagecoach or you own headset as is life saving and goes tremendously well if stagecoach did that for majority of drivers! Sad that we dont even get GPS sat navigations with live feed traffic on majority of buses, that to would work tremendously well when dealing with emergency calls, etc congestion and route closures!
re fare evasion , what you've said is counter to everything that stagecoach tell you to do in training and in the red book.
What route
Light aircraft buggy lol, true
Thank you Michael 👍 Great to see your Video and your calm laid back approach to being a Bus Driver ❗I noticed you mentioned about the Princess Royal Hospital, so are you based at Bromley Garage on the Hastings Road, working for stagecoach ❗ I myself have just applied to be a Bus Driver with Stagecoach for that Depot, Now have been given a Interview For this Tuesday at canning Town , London, Have you any Tips for the Interview and what can I expect from it Much appreciated James.
Nice driving. A horrible fiddly little route like that would do my head in!
This was awesome
Small talk with the bus driver absolutely forbidden while driving! 🚫🙅♂️🤫
I like earlies more than lates. Which garage are you at? I'm at Rugby in Warwickshire
Stagecoach
Micheal one question do you prefer the YX16’s or SN67’s better
TB did well on these buses
Please 🙏🥺 be good for all
Hate enviro 200s they suck they're underpowered, drive like crap and the brakes are awful and give everyone whiplash. Much rather a 400MMC and ideally a bus with a Scania drivetrain.
Thanks mate. Ive my assignment day this Tuesday and your vid has been a great help. Cheers.
Are you still bus driving?
I’m on a 4 day week and always are on middle shifts usually. So I really enjoy it.
U not on CZcams anymore
Why does 54 operate from TL instead of PD?
54 goes past Catford Bus Garage to be fair. It doesn’t pass plumstead and the changeover point is also at the garage
@@DF-ml4es I understand but Plumstead Bus Garage is very close to where 54 terminates on the Woolwich end.
@@sandheado4210 that’s easy getting to woolwich but it would be a pain getting to Elmers end.
Michael you Left out the disabled people wen you were talking about the old People and the kids i Also think cash Should be taken Again on the Buses I Think it will stop People not paying as Much as thet Way the people have the Opsin of cash or card
Dang, my guy be driving me around without realising.
Be nice to see the 119 and 146 route if they still run
Did I hear right. £1.50..... £1.50 Wow, Come on, now that is a bargain...£1.50... jeez.. Regarding kids could TFL or even the Operators target the Schools and labour the point No pass no Ride.
Great job Michael,from a bus drivers perspective your bang on,seems we all have to grin and bare all that goes on in a day,however it sure keeps life interesting,peace and calm to all who spin the big wheel for a living.
What do you do when somebody doesn't want to pay and just walks on and sits down? That would get my blood boiling lol
Are these buses classed as Smart hybrids? I hear they differ slightly from a standard diesel in that there's an auxiliary motor attached, even though they drive the same as regular E40Ds.
I was on benefits for two months at the start of the year. It's 400 a month, and you don't get anything till the second month. I was literally eating one bowl of porridge every other day. Working now, but I'm guessing the lady who didn't want to pay was unemployed? The levels of poverty you can reach very quickly when you out of work can't be underestimated.
Have you ever thought to quit cigs?
Heating in saloon bad in a lot of buses
💯 can't keep up.with gas prices 2024 and people living in poverty😢😢😢😢
Love Volvo buses ;) Bus: Volvo B5TL E400MMC
Its so cheap it’s almost like stealing
I’m thinking of applying for a trainee bus driver job local to me. One thing that keeps putting me off is what you do if you need to use the toilet. Trying to be polite I don’t have a weak bladder but I do go fairly often. Sorry for the strange question and comment
Study your bus routes, there will be toilets on route or even at the terminus or start point of a route. Many bus routes go through a supermarket like Tesco no shame in delaying 5 minutes for a toilet break just announce to passengers the bus will be stopping for 5 minutes.
Thourghly enjoyed the video. Nice scottish accent. Hope your stil with the buses. Avid enthusiast.
ye it is £1.70 for a single and £3.50-£5.50 for a day rider in Arriva North West
I’ve got an interview with stagecoach trainee role what is the interview process like?
How did you get on?
There is no interview process.. it's a dead end "I failed school" job. They tell u why u want to be a bus driver and then you pass the "interview". They're desperate for drivers they'll accept anyone. No one stays at these type of jobs
@@Brock-Lesnar-WWE I hear you
@TyroneEntertainingJoseph did u leave the bus driving job 🤔 what happened in the last 3 years🤔
@@Brock-Lesnar-WWE wow can’t believe it’s been 3 years since I applied erm I just changed my mind about being a bus driver and around another job doing something else however I was also struggling with the theory test because there was sooo much questions to do and it was hard for me to remember all of them well remember enough to pass.
