steel narwhal
jaunty wind
#

albeit they’re not great for content or whatever

steel narwhal
#

it’s not like u live in london

jaunty wind
#

but they’re a smooth drive

#

alot of torque asw

#

so they pull away quick

vagrant hollow
#

yeahh i won’t like despise it but it’s more like the childhood aspect innit

jaunty wind
#

yeahh i hear it

vagrant hollow
#

jaunty wind
#

time to preserve a bus!

vagrant hollow

vagrant hollow
steel narwhal
#

lk65 Ts will prob be around tbf

don’t see them going soon

vagrant hollow
#

in 2028? i doubt it

jaunty wind
#

depends where you go

vagrant hollow
#

molten trellis
#

The LK65s are hybrids to TFL

vagrant hollow
#

they’ll be moved elsewhere

jaunty wind
#

by the time you have 1y driving experience

molten trellis
#

GY cooked all of the Ts

vagrant hollow
#

early 2029

steel narwhal
#

it was 2021 when TfL launched their first high spec bus

jaunty wind
#

oh yeah you’re EVs then

steel narwhal
#

if u think abt it that’s crazy

jaunty wind
#

most long term contracts are like 2028/8

modern gazelle
steel narwhal
#

how’s the capital taking that long to put in seats with headrests

#

charging

vagrant hollow
#

DWs are on 121 til 2028

steel narwhal
#

i don’t get it

#

harrogate have had highER spec buses since 2015

#

and even before then

modern gazelle
#

icl tuk/abellio future interiors are still the best in london

steel narwhal
#

there was high spec

#

it’s so far behind

vagrant hollow
#

bc london has such a large fleet

#

you can’t afford to spunk put money on high spec buses for every route innit

#

or so many routes

#

so you just agree on a medium spec and buy that

steel narwhal
#

but u can at least trial it when it’s new

modern gazelle
#

abellio high spec is luxurious compared to gal 400ev high speec

vagrant hollow
#

which has what’s happened since then

restive cypress
vagrant hollow
#

like GAL future spec is a mid spec

steel narwhal
#

yeah like 7 years too late

vagrant hollow
#

wooden floor, usb charging, new PIS

Nuke it

jaunty wind

that’s auto break has gotta be a hazard

modern gazelle
#

151 DELs don't have it

restive cypress

pallid laurel
molten trellis
#

It’s meant to be London plates

restive cypress
#

LY is the alternative use for LV idk why some Metroline liners have MF plates

vagrant hollow
#

more than likely it’ll be

molten trellis
#

So they’ll most likely be LV

vagrant hollow
#

LV. LX, LY

modern gazelle
#

@vagrant hollow see you're getting stupid shit liners

restive cypress
#

RATP/TuK even have MJ

vagrant hollow

vagrant hollow

If not slough

molten trellis
modern gazelle
#

wimbledon is top 5 london suburbs

steel narwhal
#

yeah but like meh

#

Kingston tbh

#

😫

molten trellis

Cos PD’s BF15s are from Falkirk asw

vagrant hollow

BF is brum @molten trellis

not falkirk

molten trellis
#

Ohh

modern gazelle
#

bf65 best g3

vagrant hollow
#

anything beginning with a B

#

is birmingham

steel narwhal
#

they just get registered elsewhere in that case

molten trellis
#

Pretty much

steel narwhal
#

Stagecoach seem to never register theirs in the factory

modern gazelle
#

GN is kent ik that !

restive cypress
#

Is me who never seen a LR plate b4

steel narwhal
#

until now with the evs

#

all their buses had ldn plates basically

vagrant hollow
molten trellis
steel narwhal
#

wooooooo

molten trellis
#

Even the ALX400s were LX

steel narwhal
#

oh tbf their MMCs were factory reg

#

the e200mmcs

#

and e400mmcs

restive cypress
#

EVcities was either LF/LD/LG

steel narwhal
#

and LE!

#

LE21s over here

vagrant hollow
restive cypress
#

Or LEs

steel narwhal
#

the 183s LG22s were meant to be LB71s too

restive cypress
#

Anyone seen a LL plate?

restive cypress
vagrant hollow
#

yeah on cars

modern gazelle
#

whats SL

restive cypress
#

Got good

molten trellis
vagrant hollow
#

DT 🔜

restive cypress
#

I think EEs are the ev for DTs

#

Imo

vagrant hollow
#

just for storage yeah

#

ohh

modern gazelle
#

whats FJ

vagrant hollow
#

yeah i hope so

vagrant hollow
molten trellis
#

If DT get EEs I’ll be happy

vagrant hollow
#

same

upbeat birch
#

how do they js order before the result even gets out

molten trellis
#

Just as long as it isn’t BD11s

vagrant hollow
#

EEs would suit on 229/428/492

molten trellis
#

I’m interested

vagrant hollow
#

so much

restive cypress
#

If you near bexley you wont want DT to have ES

molten trellis
vagrant hollow
#

like imagine an EE on stand at queen marys

#

the interior would be sick

#

DT deserves nice buses

#

not some cheap chinese plastic

molten trellis
#

Ahlie

restive cypress
#

I’m glad the e200ev have blue lighting

molten trellis
#

Wtf is a BD11

restive cypress
#

Sad the e400ev don’t

vagrant hollow
#

how u waiting 10 years for a vehicle order

#

then ur spending little to no money on china bus

#

never

molten trellis
#

Makes 0 sense

restive cypress
#

Imagine how 97 feels

#

No new buses since the 80s

molten trellis
#

Last orders were B13s ENRs and 229/492’s LK65s

vagrant hollow
#

idm 428 being a hybrid contract tbf

#

adds variety

#

if they can get HTs here + EEs

#

i’m so happy

restive cypress
#

428 probably have HTs

molten trellis
#

So

#

tridents weren’t brought for it

restive cypress
#

No

vagrant hollow
#

40 years with no new vehicles

molten trellis
#

That’s sad

vagrant hollow
#

fuck the 97

restive cypress
#

Just keeps getting retained with existing

molten trellis
#

Even 321 has had newer buses ordered

#

2002 and 2024

restive cypress
#

Meanwhile 322

#

Gets the newest vehicles every time

molten trellis
restive cypress
#

Mhm

steel narwhal
#

this 285 retain is the first time it’s not got new buses ordered since erm

#

the 90s

#

tbh

molten trellis
#

💀

vagrant hollow
#

what buses were bought for 96

#

E40Hs?

#

PD is just a mess to me

molten trellis
#

Speaking of 285 I did that yesterday

vagrant hollow
#

i cba tryna understand it

molten trellis
#

Driver was fast

#

But ISA ruined the bus

steel narwhal
restive cypress
vagrant hollow
#

LX11s?

restive cypress
#

But those left and the hybrids moved in

#

Well not all

molten trellis
#

Both ISA’ed

vagrant hollow
#

i’m so happy PDs YX16s aren’t ISA

#

the SN67s tho 🤢

steel narwhal
#

it’s so tragic at TF they intentionally give out the worst buses in the fleet

molten trellis
#

Honestly

restive cypress
steel narwhal
#

2044 has no isa if ur gonna do it again

molten trellis
#

They take off

steel narwhal
restive cypress
#

Number blind is tapped off at the bakc

steel narwhal
#

2578 is the one in the vid

restive cypress
#

Oh there’s TWO

steel narwhal
#

2618 is there too and it looks awful cuz it had a half rebuild

#

theres 3

vagrant hollow
#

TUK has to be the worst company

steel narwhal
#

2 YX17s and 1 sn18

vagrant hollow
#

i always see some shocking performances from them

steel narwhal
#

it’s what I’m saying

restive cypress
#

Should see the state of LTs at QB

steel narwhal
#

i literally can’t rely on them

restive cypress
#

TUK west is the worse subsidiary

vagrant hollow
#

see idk west so like what other company could replace them

#

ima guess FL

restive cypress
#

Even the liners as wel

vagrant hollow
#

or ML

restive cypress
#

Some have just 111

steel narwhal
vagrant hollow
#

LOL

restive cypress
#

Tbh

#

North Sheen was gridlocked

molten trellis
restive cypress
#

I’m not surprised

steel narwhal
#

that’s not today

restive cypress
#

They always have the hardest route

steel narwhal
#

that’s some random day

vagrant hollow
#

i might actually model a E40H mmc for omsi

steel narwhal
#

Please do

vagrant hollow
#

remember my old packs

restive cypress
#

33 js a hard to run

vagrant hollow
#

i wanted to get rid of the bodges

molten trellis
restive cypress
#

65 is the hardest route to run in London

molten trellis
#

Tbf I’m available this week so

restive cypress
#

And 18

steel narwhal
#

yeah tbf a few of them don’t

molten trellis
#

May aswell do it again on that

steel narwhal
#

it’s noticeable cuz the drivers are doing 30+ in a 20

molten trellis
#

Fairs

steel narwhal
#

consistenty

#

ly

molten trellis
steel narwhal
#

2044 285

molten trellis
#

So it’ll let them do 30 in a 20

molten trellis
steel narwhal
#

that was on a diversion round teddington tbf

vagrant hollow
#

what app is tha

steel narwhal
#

but they do pick up speed between teddington and Kingston usually late evening tho

#

i mean ig Heathrow area is best

#

for 285

#

depends tho

#

the 285 drivers can either be slow af or borderline high on drugs

molten trellis
#

Sometimes drivers only do up to the limit because of it

steel narwhal
#

i had 1 in a yx17 overtake our bus, then skip the Sainsbury’s double run so that we would have to do it

#

😭

molten trellis
steel narwhal
vagrant hollow
#

3.5k chats here 😭

molten trellis
#

That’s y I kinda gave it a go and coincidentally got a quick driver

restive cypress
#

One thing about TUK is that they have fast drivers

#

Unlike slowtroline

steel narwhal
#

i don’t really go out specifically to try get fast drivers but what i have noticed is they usually drive fast by the end of the route towards Kingston

#

mainly cuz on that end there’s no cameras

#

like u said for heathrow

molten trellis
steel narwhal
#

being a local it’s like a 3 in 10 chance at a push

#

today my 285 in the morning the driver was so shit

#

guy was going fast in all fairness

molten trellis
#

Usually by the end of a route that’s when they’ll floor it cos it’s the destination

steel narwhal
#

but he was braking sharp so some guy could jaywalk 😭

molten trellis
#

😭😭😭😭

#

That’s the thing

#

I hate drivers like that

steel narwhal
#

ive never seen someone stop a bus so someone can cross the road in the middle of nowhere

#

I literally almost fell down the stairs the braking was that bad

molten trellis
#

They’ll be flooring it to the maxxxxx

#

Just for them to be slow in the most spacious part of the route

steel narwhal
#

u have the drivers that PISS me off

steel narwhal
#

no traffic btw

molten trellis
#

All because someone wanted to jaywalk

steel narwhal
#

exactly

#

17 minutes to do 5 stops btw

#

said driver did

molten trellis
steel narwhal
#

he managed to miss the same set of lights twice

molten trellis
#

That’s worse than a driver doing 15 in a 40

steel narwhal
#

tuk will do anything but regulate the bus

#

oh yeah i once had a driver change that took 25 minutes

#

idk how the fuck ur that late to the driver change

molten trellis
#

He broke hard at one of the lights

#

When they changed to amber

steel narwhal
#

the classic

steel narwhal
molten trellis
#

And the controller didn’t even turn the bus??

steel narwhal
#

nah

molten trellis
#

💀

steel narwhal
#

if they turn the bus it’s always right at the start of the route

molten trellis
#

Average TF

steel narwhal
#

and they don’t log the curtail on ibus

#

either

#

u have r68s showing richmond but announcing kew

molten trellis
#

I swearrr man

#

It acc gets like that

#

They’ll change the blinds

steel narwhal
#

it’s so annoying

molten trellis
#

But won’t change the onus

#

Ibus

steel narwhal
#

1 thing with tuk asw is that they always dump buses at the changeover spot

#

QB do it too

#

u just end up with random sk20s blocking the road cuz there was no new driver

molten trellis
#

😂😂😂😂😂

steel narwhal
#

lol even rn

#

check the 285 and there u go

molten trellis
#

Na there aint no way😭😭😭😭😭😭

#

It’s nearly quarter to

steel narwhal
#

exactly

molten trellis
#

Three of them stopped tracking

#

So I can assume they are on stand or going back to Kingston now

steel narwhal
#

which in itself is a bit odd considering the night pvr is meant to be 5!

molten trellis
#

But still that shouldn’t even be happening😂

steel narwhal
#

idk what their priorities are

#

these SK20s are probably going for refurb for this retain

#

and they still can’t manage to keep a full alloc even when they’re not gone

#

oh yeah let me not even mention that when the Electroliners were fucked and that mmc had to do 111 for the first time a driver said he was abt to take an e200 on the route

#

b4 they gave him the sk20

steel narwhal
#

yeah

molten trellis
#

He would’ve been in the biggest of troubles if he did that

steel narwhal
#

yeah that would’ve been mad

#

for tuk

molten trellis
#

Does he not know how busy 111 is during the day😂

#

Passengers would be fuming at stops

steel narwhal
#

I don’t think they know anything

steel narwhal
vagrant hollow
#

gen 2 woooo

molten trellis
#

That’s 490

steel narwhal
#

nah that’s QB on the 485

#

which fe it’s a newly gained route but it’s quite literally a 15min LOR

#

idk how u dk that

molten trellis
#

Honestly

#

People can learn that in 5 minutes

steel narwhal
#

their G1 service is so shit asw

molten trellis
#

They don’t even have to practice

steel narwhal
#

js like with the r68 they’re bunching on an every 20 minute

#

sometimes in 3s

molten trellis
#

That’s so shit

#

Is the route on headway or schedule

steel narwhal
#

it really is

#

idk tbf but it’s low frequency so idk why controllers aren’t getting involved

#

just can’t wait for them to take over the 493

molten trellis
#

Yhh litch and the fact it’s every 20 mins

steel narwhal
#

on everything 33 will be finished once tuk take over the 493

molten trellis
#

Surely the service should be spaced out

#

Within a 20 minute gap

steel narwhal
#

that’ll be the only bus for an hour on the a205

steel narwhal
molten trellis
#

Ig the controllers cba

steel narwhal
#

as usual

#

im convinced they’re not even actual controllers

molten trellis
#

Indian robots

#

Sometimes it happens on 490 asw

#

I’d see like 3 pulling into terminal 5

molten trellis

How can 3 pull into terminal 5 at once

steel narwhal
#

molten trellis
molten trellis
#

Cos when I did it

#

The driver sped everywhere else

#

Except sheffield way

#

That long ahh road towards T4

steel narwhal
#

oh yeah there’s cameras everywhere there tbf

#

bit annoying

molten trellis
#

And that

#

That’s why they never floor it there

#

But in the night they defo do

steel narwhal
#

it would be nice if there weren’t cuz it’s a fast road

molten trellis
#

Literally

#

Very spacious too

steel narwhal
#

yeah

molten trellis
#

Sad for 482 tho😂 its buses are ISA’ed aswell

steel narwhal
#

what isn’t isaed at tuk atp

molten trellis
#

The road is a 30 so it’ll limit them to a 30 anyway

fallow wigeon
#

okay fair

restive cypress
#

Other than a veg who actually does end to end

pale sigil
#

💀💀💀

#

11 miles

#

it's going to be the next day by the time you finish the whole route

restive cypress
#

🫤

pale sigil
#

i'm being serious

#

how is it even going to get from end to end in under 2 hours

restive cypress
#

We don’t even know the routing

#

Can we at least wait please lol

pale sigil
#

direct is 58 minutes at the least during this time

molten trellis
molten trellis
restive cypress
#

but if trains are fine

pale sigil
#

they really withdrew the 347 for this 🥀

restive cypress
#

why would do that lmao

molten trellis
restive cypress
#

its like taking 55 to walthamstow central instead of the victoria line lmao from oxford circus

peak bay
molten trellis
#

That’s why the lizzy line serves the same areas 25/86/425 serve from Stratford onwards

restive cypress
#

honestly im so confused you brought up 347 out of all routes

#

literally every 2 hours

pale sigil
#

yeah but it served clay tye and st mary's lane

pale sigil
gloomy osprey
#

No way they’re giving it some fucked up routing

#

But then again the A205 can get busy

meager ether

#

What was that the last day

celest robin
restive cypress
#

the thing is about SL5

#

theres is no other fast way to bromley

celest robin
#

sl7 asw some do

restive cypress
#

from croydon

celest robin
#

alot of the heathrow routes r end to end tbf

#

u could also argue 129 used to be

restive cypress
#

tbf thats an airport

restive cypress
celest robin
#

well yeah thats the point

#

routes can be used end to end

restive cypress
#

but anyways a large major of ppl dont do end to end

celest robin
#

and some r designed to

restive cypress
#

they do in between those ends

peak bay
celest robin
#

i mean yeah

#

alot go from heathrow to even east croydon

peak bay
#

actually a few do go croydon to heathrow but not many

celest robin
#

well yeah but some still do it

peak bay
#

its easier to get lizzy line to farringdon now

celest robin
#

its not like no one does

peak bay
#

ye true

restive cypress
#

its not like croydon has a direct way to heathrpw

#

other than SL7

#

and the thing is lizzy can be unreliable sometimes

#

or even thameslink tbf

peak bay
restive cypress
#

true

#

but at least you get to heathrow 9/10 times

#

even the hatton cross

#

you can get a free ride to airport from there

#

if you stay within the airport zone

peak bay
#

o yh thats a good point actually most ppl get off at hatton cross

restive cypress
#

goign to heathrow central unless ur a flight attend make no sense

peak bay
#

many people are employed at the airport

restive cypress
#

cause you still have walk past the station to get to the terminals#

peak bay
#

not just flight attendants

restive cypress
#

that too

#

make sense why tfl didnt go ahead with SL7 to sutton

#

that would of been bad

#

TFL needs to bring back N213 tho

peak bay
#

fr no croydon to sutton night link is an L

#

tho it might just be better to restore 154 24/7
