    Leave the pa in, out of sight and a massive plus for fun longer journeys. Really enjoyed watching your enthusiasm. I had a Leyland PD1 and know how hard and challenging these buses are to tidy up. They’re so much bigger to work on than they look. I’d travel to St Helens to work on mine and after a whole day, I’d look at a tiny area that I’d actually achieved something on. A bit soul destroying at times but you are doing it right.

    Let me tell you, i am dutch and i know of these buses but i never had childhood memories of them. I didn’t know they are so interesting!! I am bingewatching your channel. I have once met a yellow routemaster in holland that was used as a partybus and i noticed how lovely the engine runs

    Once again, loved this episode. Great to see RM1214 taking shape. Longer video length nice too. Bonus footage of the RT which looked really well too. You’re clearly very fastidious with the condition and presentation of your vehicles which is so good to see. Look forward to episode 7.

    Greetings from Australia. Glad you started wearing some sort of protection. Surprised you didn't open the windows etc. In Oz, there was lead in our paints back in the 40's, 50's, 60's & 70's. Now gone, unless you buy older vehicles or even houses that are undergoing renovations etc. Just a thought ! Keep up the good work.

    Are you going to change the colour of the ceiling (for want if a better word)?
    Also, what are the differences between your bus and the RT that you fixed in the episode?
    Cheers, Andy.

      @Routemaster4Hire  Před 3 lety +1

      Hi Andy. Thanks for your questions. No we will be keeping the ceiling the same colour as this is the correct colour. To read about the difference between the RT and a Routemaster, have a look at the London Bus Museum website there is lots of info here...

    Love your videos, you do a realy great work keeping the heritage busses running and available to everyone! Your video work is great, I would bet there is a proffesional involved in the editing!
    The only thing I'd change would be the level of the music in the video. It seems much higher then the spoken parts and demands playing with volume settings quite a lot.
    Keep up the good work!

    • @Routemaster4Hire
      @Routemaster4Hire  Před 2 lety

      Thank you very much, no professional video editor employed. All self taught and done in-house. If you see our more recent videos you will notice the music level is better as we had many comments about this in the early days. Hopefully you will find the levels much improved now?
