  • This video is a cab cam of the 323 (on loan from Arriva Wakefield) Route from Huddersfield To Marten Nest (Netherton) but after everyone over on instagram wanted a video I couldn't miss the chance to film 261.
    I have a video of 262 when it was in the tiger livery, check that out here • Yorkshire Tigers Denni...
    I hope you all enjoy this little video, an absolute pleasure to drive. I wish we had more of these in our fleet.
    As always thank you greatly for the support it means the world to me and if I can ever help with any bus driving related questions please fire them below or on my instagram @theflatcapbusdriver

      I know you won’t drive them but if you want to see some I think stagecoach use them as training buses and Romford bus garage is recruiting so there might be some there, also there are some open top buses stored in Romford garage at the moment.

    I ride to college most mornings on a dart. They vary a lot here in north devon with stagecoach. There is one TransBus 2004 one, which is a rattly shed, but one or two of the 56 reg ones are absolutely fine. They just get a little bit rough after an hour. Our driver seems to like them tho.

    Hi, great videos. I start with Arriva as a trainee bus driver in a few weeks. I have been told that as a Arriva bus driver you will have to learn all the bus routes that are available from the depot you are assigned to. Mine will be Wakefield My question is are you given plenty of time to learn the routes before you are assigned to them and do they give you some sort of a route map to take away and learn before giving you the route to drive. Maybe a video on this would be a great topic for you to explain on CZcams. Keep up with the great videos.
