I've been on Sullivan Buses On Rail Replacement TfL Rail (UL51) Back in 2021 with The Scanias (Ex Stagecoach) and Enviro400s (Ex Tower Transit, Abellio London) they were so good. Nice Video Godwin!
It's so sad that Dean Sullivan is withdrawing Sullivan Buses from TFL. Also these are the ones that you forgot: the circular route 327 went to Metroline, and the 720 Railway Replacement bus route is on RATP Group. This is actually a cool video I liked all the parts.
@@GTransit Service can't have been as poor as my local route the 365, which seems to enjoy not ending up at Havering Park and have odd 20-30 mins gaps in its service.
Nice to see that UNO is operating more routes in North London! R.I.P Sullivan but my previous locak route 549 is going back to Stagecoach though which is nice. Cool video!
I agree! I love UNO running in London, love their moquette, I hope that they operate more routes within London - 549 back to Stagecoach is very nice, thank you so much for watching 💙
Good to see SN65 ZGO still in service after TT lost the 69 route. I remember these use to charge while on route so pretty great to see these still running.
Everyone gets lucky and gets former DH38501 yet when I went to do the 298 I got WS46😭nice video though! Shame to see Sullivan Buses go as I used to work on rail replacement for them but it’s an end of an era
Great video! The Purple moquette is definitely different! These were indeed the demonstrators for the 69, but they had navy seats then (think of something along the lines of the Southeastern Networkers). Lovely buses to ride on!. Uno do keep a very clean fleet! You should definitely sample the commercial routes like that 610 you saw.
Thanks so much for watching! UNO definitely know how to do it, purple was such a different feeling for me but it’s clean and amazing which I love, I may try 620 if I find the time! 😁
I live right next to Sullivan Buses. A fairly alright company overall in my opinion, neither good nor bad. They have never had enough drivers to operate TFL routes which is the problem. Like you said they should just focus on operating commercial routes. I would rate them overall 5/10. I have been on Uno's 383 route a few times but it is still too early to rate them. Great video too!
Oooh, now you will have some variety around you haha! I say 5/10 is a fair score which I agree with, I feel they will do really well with commercial as their routes such as 84 perform really well, thanks so much for watching!!
My experience on the 217 is questionable sometimes it comes sometimes it's packed and the last time I went on the 217 I dell down like 5 times because of the brakes
Honestly, the amount of negative experiences I've had with Sullivan I'm glad that they are leaving TfL operations, I hope you are okay with your bad experiences also :(
@@GTransitit's fine but really it was a bit of a bad experience and they don't stick with one bus for each route I mean for the 217 they had different variants of the E400 including the voith the omnicicity and the E400MMC and the fact they didn't have there kn maquette is not cool and also with the I also had to take 3 217 to turnpike Lane because one curtailed to Cambridge roundabout and then another one came but it curtailed to Granville road and then another one came and I finnaly managed to make it to turnpike Lane and to make matters even worse it was raining and the driver was braking hard so I basically fell down again😢😢😢 I do miss it but atleast it went to arriva because they can handle their busses so here you go and if I were to rate it out of 10 I would say a 3.5 because it was just not really good and it was just diesel busses not hybrid or electric
this bus pictured in the thumbnail is an enviro 400 mmc virtual electric but upon purchase by unō the electric system is removed converting to a hybrid
I reckon the real reason that Sullivan buses have backed off is because of all the fines they get from TFL for running late services, I have seen 3 217's sitting at Waltham Cross for 50 minutes, Apps showing they should be running, Been told that there should never ever be 3 in the bus station at any one time, Also been told by drivers that the owner is a 🔔🔚

Thanks for watching! What did you like best about this video! :)
BRILLIANT Start to the series Godwin!
Reply here if you miss Sullivian Buses that if you were sad
@@GAT_MI am so sad 😭 it’s transferred, rare and old allocations will be very very missed 😢😢😢 but at least they’ll be more frequent with these newly assigned operators! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
You are great, CZcamsr
You expired me to become a CZcamsr
As a local to several of these routes I hadnt even heard about this until now, thanks Godwin :)
Your welcome! Thank YOU so much for the watching!!😁

UNO still have Scania's that are operating on 298 so that will be your last time to catch it! Thanks so much for watching 😁
Nice video , R.I.P Sullivan buses.
Thanks so much for watching!!
"said bye bye" wise words
LOL
@@GTransit you should make it a meme or a GIF

I agree! Thanks so much for watching!!

Thank you for making this video, I’m away and was curious how the 298 works now 👊
Thanks so much for tuning in! The series will be covering all the routes!
Incredibly sad to see Sullivan buses not operating tfl routes at least they still have Ex Go ahead Enviro 200s
Yeah it is quite sad but with their unreliable services it was inevitable :(
@@GTransit I agree 👍
WE need more routes with UNO Looks soo cool the purple fits the bus so well
I agree!! Maybe they can take 313 when its retendered 👀
UNO are using special despensation
as all TfL routes are red
sorry my mistake i thought you ment extenaly
Agreed
Very nice!
Thanks so much for watching!
Great video, I can only hope tfl don't do the same to UNO as they have Sullivan
I don't think they will as UNO has money and they will run a reliable service which means less complaints!
@@GTransit Yeah true, they are bigger than Sullivan too
Sullivan were unreliable, and now Arriva are running the 217 it will be a more reliable service,
Good riddance Sullivan Buses
@@n4thb4dc0 Noooooooooo, you're right about the service but they were interesting, they didn't have the resources to run routes to a good standard
Good to see SN65 ZGO still in service after TT lost the 69 route. I remember these use to charge while on route so pretty great to see these still running.
I agree with you! Love these buses, I wish they stayed on 69!
Everyone gets lucky and gets former DH38501 yet when I went to do the 298 I got WS46😭nice video though! Shame to see Sullivan Buses go as I used to work on rail replacement for them but it’s an end of an era
OH. Streetlite, oh dear. Thanks so much for watching, hopefully you can get yourself that E400HMMC!
they had loads of vintage busses and some of their busses in the fleet are once of their only ones left in london, sad to see them go
Yeah :( agreed

The purple is so unique i like it
Same!
That is arnos Grove all the sulivan bus company are going
Yeah :(
R.I.P sullervian buses
they join with CT Plus and Tower Transit
:(
Sullivan did want the route but due to TFL they had to give it away and they did not say they didn't want the route and is in Hertfordshire.
Ah I see, Deans statement is located in the video which explains it all!
First: excellent video
Thanks for watching! :)
Dw Godwin I’m sure we can rely on the Northumberland park bus garage and Tottenham bus garage to not let us down
Yes!
ve been in the 217 like that route goes along the A10
Yes!
My experience on the 217 is questionable sometimes it comes sometimes it's packed and the last time I went on the 217 I dell down like 5 times because of the brakes

6:07 Hey Godwin just to let you know one of the school routes which is 640 that route is going to Metroline in Harrow Weald Bus Garage
Oooh! Metroline👀
@@GTransit yup, indeed!
Your so close to 1000 subscribers keep going
Almost!!
this bus pictured in the thumbnail is an enviro 400 mmc virtual electric but upon purchase by unō the electric system is removed converting to a hybrid
Oooh! I never knew this!
@@GTransit this was from tower transit
Rest in peace suvvilans buses i hope uno does well on 298
Yes!
do route 389 and next do 399 it had go ahead in london
👀
Today i went to get the 298, to my luck, an omnicity spawned in at Arnos Grove
:((
i had to wait up to 2 hours for 298 lol, so many buses on the route were missing
2 HOURS?! WHAT.
The high back seats used to be on 69 2016-2021 tower transit
Yes! I heard about this!
You should do 217 or 299 next
Might be one of the next videos! :)
I reckon the real reason that Sullivan buses have backed off is because of all the fines they get from TFL for running late services,
I have seen 3 217's sitting at Waltham Cross for 50 minutes,
Apps showing they should be running,
Been told that there should never ever be 3 in the bus station at any one time,
Also been told by drivers that the owner is a 🔔🔚
OH YEAH, that’s something I haven’t considered, thanks for sharing your perspective!
Where was the Sullivan's Buses statement posted?
It should be on Facebook, Sullivan Buses website as well as online if you just search it up!
They even had a 605 on the route
Oooh!
How long did you wait for the 298? Because I needed to go to Potters Bar that same day and I ended up waiting over an hour because of this change
Ages… at least about 45 minutes
298 runs every 20 mins daytime mon - Saturday but known for not showing up
Will Sullivan busses still be operating on Sullivan busses outside London?
Yes, their commercial routes and fleet remain unaffected, I belive their London fleet will be withdrawn or sold.
How many electric buses do you think you can get for £130K?
Unsure on that one!
Whats happening to there fleet
Sullivan Buses withdrew from services in TFL Meaning all their routes went to different companies hence the fleet changes!

Sullivan busses use older busses making it unreliable
Precisely!!
Yo guess what
What?
UNO???
Yes!
