You mean, if I become a Convict. I could ride in one of those. Hold on, I'll be right back.

Greyhound is a private company.

I just got a job in mn, and thry have me learning on school bus before i love to a motorcoach... Which is what I really want to do

Impressive. Why don't American customizers use VanHool shells?

It would have been polite to introduce the lady.

What is the pay?

The CGI is amazing in your videos.

VERY enjoyable and educational 👍👍

Very impressive

As a trucker i would prefer the rear engine coach for some additional reasons. traction and power are now on same end of the bus not opposite ends, also no drive shaft to twist or maintain, disconnect for towing etc. plus i can see around corners easier w/o trying to put the engine through a crosswalk to check for on coming 4 wheelers on their phones🤣😂

The commitment the employees show is remarkable.

The California justice system is the worst justice system in United States. Democrats have destroyed any kind of rehabilitation in prisons. You now have to call inmates guests it’s incredible you can’t call and it made an inmate people do bad shit in America and you just have the president. Just forgive them while all of us continue to pay astronomical taxes to pay for public employees.

Having to assume thee things are live at all time and not to touch without testing them goes to show just how much we are not in control. Bad idea for the future im diesel all the way!

I used to drive an MCI D45 CNG-fueled model for Sunline Transit. They had 3-4 such buses. It was a commuter-style used mainly to transport students among campuses of California State University San Bernardino and nearby transit stations. It was about 170 miles round trip. Extra CNG tanks were installed to give them the range. One stop was a commuter rail/bus station that gave residents of the Coachella Valley (Palm Springs) access to the bus/Lite Rail/Commuter rail resources of Los Angeles Metro including to LAX, other area airports, and Amtrak at Union Station.

The EU shouldn’t have let that happen. They have been critical to infrastructure across the Union and should have been bailed out

becaUSE ITS a scool bus and no matter what it loooks like, it evokes rage because you know they wont pull off to let people pass no matter how many people are stuck behind them

I was last there in 2006. (Kosovo) We called it "FYROM" The Former Yogoslav Republic of Macedonia.

Please look up a bus called the CYCLOPS its biger than a jumbo cruiser it was featured in a 1976 movie called The Big bus. Please look this movie up I'm anxious to hear your opinion on it. I love buses myself and it's good to know that someone else out there likes buses as much as I do.

Congratulations 🍾🥂

Japan is their currently their biggest target market in Asia.

That was shocking news

Congratulations. I know you will Continue the company into many more years of service

The Ashok Leyland has flat nose but the engine is at the front 💀💀💀

Gonna chime in here. I am an insurance adjuster (20 years in the insurance industry). As a child…my biggest dream was to become a truck driver or a bus driver. My parents’ took my siblings and I on many trips and during those trips…I would press my forehead against the window (of the 69’ Buick Elektra or the 79’ Fleetwood Brougham) while those big, pretty, blue Steelcase tractor trailers with all the clearance lights would zoom past us on the interstate or when those charter buses would zoom past in the passing lane! I thought those big machines rolling were the coolest thing on earth so much so that I would draw rigs in class! Well…I’m getting my CDL presently and going to start driving a school bus in my school district early before my day starts at home and hope to work up to a charter bus. I am up there in age (54) but it’s never too late to go back to recapture and/or live out your dreams. Wish me luck?

👍👍👍

Best of luck!

I like the wratchet belt idea! I will want the equipment for my phone to have it accessible . And a collar Bluetooth.

It is a good idea to ask management if they have made the trip before incase there are low bridges or any other surprises ! It is nice to map the trip out ahead of time so you don't look like you don't know where your going.

I thought it was called North Macedonia now.

Love it! I just came across your channel a couple days ago. Decided to watch because I’ve used Peoria for years between Chicago and Rockford. Will board again this week and if you’re driving I’ll say ‘hello’. Happy trails!

Awesome video James!

I spent 3 months at the Belgian Van Hool factory for a university project. The difference between there and Macedonia is crazy. Belgium factory is a dump. And Van Hool treated me like shit.

Wow. From CEO of Peoria Charter too owner of Peoria Charter. Couldn't have happened to a nicer person. Congratulations. I'm on the East coast. But, if I'm ever out that way I'd love to say Hello and see your operation. You have helped your whole industry for a better understanding for outsiders like me. I'm retired (14 years) but, the one thing I would pass on when managing (35 years)others . Respect for all and make it (Job) Fun!

James, adjust the sizing strap on the hat. It's way too small on you!

Nice to see you in my hometown of Eindhoven! I drove in Illinois earlier this year. I am gladly to inform you that in the contrary to Illinois , we don't have any toll-roads around Eindhoven.

Absolutely happy for you🎉

Guests? What a bunch of leftist loon NONSENSE

Being friendly and ready to assist them on and off the bus ,having a nice appearance and smell,a nice looking driver's area,and spear to know what your doing and where you are going makes for a happy ride!

Congratulations James... you definitely earned it and deserves to be the CEO. I've been watching all of your videos. I just earned my Class B CDL with Air Brakes Endorsement. My goal is to become a Motorcoach/Bus Driver. I want to drive buses for Greyhound, Peter Pan or Peoria Charter. I have to get my Passenger Endorsement by driving on a Bus. How do I contact you James for a job as a Driver for Peoria?

Remember the front door if not obstructed is an emergency exit. Also the emergency exit lables on the hatches and windows should be readable I feel incase I get nocked out the passengers can figure them out!

There needs to be a part 2 to this and Scania coaches should be involved.

Wow, this was so insightful, I was particularly impressed that there were tough questions and they weren't ignored.. I remember VanHool as a partner in the construction on city buses in Dublin, Ireland way back in the day and how fascinated I was in the engineering of such buses as a kid. VDL is now very prominent in our regional bus network here in Ireland I'm suer the future of VanHool is safe. I was so proud to see you drive a coach that will be on our roads, keep up the great work.

Is that the new BLM and Antifa transport model.

Very helpful video

Congratulations James, May God Bless you and Peoria Charter. from the V-line Transit Company.

Will Vanhool produce city buses and wheelchair buses fo the USA?

After my retirement, I want to tour the US and Canada. I do not like to drive for hours on end, so I am mainly going to use Amtrak and busses. Hopefully not this particular type of buss! 😂😅 Btw cool buss! In my country, the Netherlands, most prisoners are transported by small vans, mostly of the Mercedes Sprinter type.

I watched only ONE video and the :I just bought PCC{ and am convinced YOU have the temperament to direct such a business, GOOD LUCK !

here in the philippines if your planning to buy a korean bus its best to choose a used bus imported from korea because here in the philippines if you buy one straight from HARI (Hyundai Asia Resources Inc) brand new well the specs might not impress you i mean imagine buying a Hyundai bus that is brand new and gives you what 380ps of power euro 4 engine and 5 speed manual while if you buy the same bus secondhand imported from korea well it gives you 425ps of power euro 4 to euro 5 engine and 6 speed manual plus its cheaper than the brand new one the only downside is since its secondhand there might be problems that may arise so choose what you buy wisely and inspect the vehicle that you are buying for any hidden problems

T.q James...you are awesome.
