This was Whitehouse bridge in Swindon

October 1 1989 My grandfather had a heart attack that same night and it took the ambulance 90 mins to arrive, needless to say he didn't survive. At the time we didn't know about the overturned bus but i suppose all those people with bumps and bruises are more important than a heart attack.😞

Money making racket

I hated these buses, sweat boxes on wheels

I was there that day. I was stood alongside the camera operator.

My family and I took the Radio Train from Dunloughrie to Killarney and then the horse drawn carriage to Muckross Abby. This was in 1970, and is still my favorite memory of our visit to Ireland.

Sounded like the reporter was about to say a cashless society at the end of the report! 😯

would love to visit and see how much it has expanded

Back in 1983 around when they came out loved the sound of the engine....had to wait 25 year and you tube to under stand what a detroit two stroke diesel engine was which powered these buses back then. 100 gallon fuel tanks only lasted half a day and the way they screamed was such a joy..

I remember the engine was loud af and they were so square but legendary

Fu ck imports. They should be Ireland made. Makes me thankful Australia at least builds buses unlike cars these days. EDIT sick buses BTW.

I have a colleague driver who does this weekly. It’s never his fault he claims.

God buses

Both these and the previous Vanhool AN68 Fleet were absolute woeful looking yokes boxes on 6 wheels plain boring looking compared to the previous Rs,RAs R900 which unfortunately this crap replaced.

Biggest heap of crap CIE had anything to do with and plain ugly.

Typical RTE making a disaster movie out it.

Now we have a card that we scan

My local route this

Dublin had an exellent tramway system....dismantled in 1949....cie formed....goverment cronies who owned privite bus companies got seats on the board.....trams ran on 600 volts dc....100 amps available....they were very powerful a fully loaded tram could pull another effortlessly.....the quality of coachbuilding was superb....spa road inchicore....needless to say all long since gone.....foundry too

Junk made by former sugar co workers not body builders....they suffered severe chassis cracking and the two stroke detroit diesel ate fuel....and fuel pumps gave problems too......the kds often ran out of fuel on the far out routes....my Dad often had to go out with fuel for them.... Of course it was political to buy them.......as I recall they tried to sell these heaps to countries in the Middle East....they didnt bite....

you can just feel the heat off that back seat downstairs

bulgy bridge be like:

He was about to to a compleatly chashles soiaty ooo

"drunk"

What i find funny is how fight broke out there was time tp radio gardi, off duty staff tried to stop the fight but bus was still carrying on its route 🤣

This is Whitehouse Bridge Swindon

Horrible bus

Beautiful little bus, very streamlined ha ha, suit the wash...

Didn’t know Adam sandler worked for DB

Ha ha ha i miss the old buses with the seats falling off, and the graffiti down the back.😂 The old KC'S KD'S and KR buses had character to them unlike the modern buses.

Very sad.

They've had this system for donkey's years in the U.S. and Canada, but the difference is one could transfer for free to another bus with their ticket, and pre-paid tickets and tokens were also used in the fare-box. Had this been in from the 1960's, OPO buses would have been in, but of course instead of one flat-fare Dublin Bus kept the stage-fare system which was stupid. If the proper DART system had been fully implemented this would not have happened this way, and there wouldn't be different providers for different modes of public transit in Dublin.

What about in Dundalk, County Louth?

I believe the KE, KD and KC series buses were also "rattle traps," especially KC2 to KC202 and KD146 that use the Cummins L10 engine and Voith D851-W7 transmission.

Did any Irish bus fanatics ever call their KC series "rattle traps," just as we took to calling some of our Flxible Metros?

'the bus broke down for a second time'😄 sums up 1980's Ireland

This is all DB?

One of my favourite buses ever the RV class despite the fact that I never got to drive one, I traveled most of my school days in it, it brings back so many memories ...the sound of the engine the specific smell inside also loved seating on the side bench beside the driver Iconic bus for me and I would love the opportunity to drive one someday hopefully!

Such an iconic and nostalgic sound! Thank you for this.

Nobody Canterbury drivers 00:01

Bulgy no-

Would have loved the window blinds off a 16A..🚌

The 19/19a were thrown under the bus. R.I.P

I noticed a VoV style dash used in Mercedes and MAN buses at the time. Who made the mechanicals?

Just use single deck bus, next question..

I Wonder What Year Was This From?

I Do Remember These Buses By That Time

Still to this day its a load of bollox!. of course its a success for the company as they are getting more money now as people like myself never bother to go get our change.....
