Wayne, you have more patience than I do, putting all those bits and pieces together. Fair play to you.

[@garforce2]

omg they even have the internal heat shutoff valve, now THAT is attention to detail (the red spigot valve handle looking thing)

[@MartinFutter70]

Why are you wearing an Aldi t-shirt...then I saw the 'B' nice one Wayne...very funny indeed! Great pack, lots of detail and fiddly bits - love it!

[@derekaxtell3289]

so glad i'm a pack behind...lol, makes life much easier when I can see your build first..lol, can't wait for pack 3 to arrive coz I have just ditched ironman through frustration with it...

[@barrywhitlock141]

That is virtually it for the chassis, next you will be going upwards apart from the side rails 2 on each side. looking good,

[@iranausley8150]

This and the FDNY Fire truck are wonderful models. If Agora Models offered and RC upgrade to these kits, I think a lot of builders that are thinking about this, and the Fire Truck would jump at the chance. These would make great RC projects. Love the build and" Keep On Crackin".

[@stevenwheaton874]

What a fantastically detailed model. Looking really good Wayne. See you next time.

[@shanemandeville7455]

We Agora corrected this issue and got my replacement in Stage 1 Pack 1 now just received Pack 4.

[@michaeljohnwicks2328]

Looking fantastic Wayne. Well done for completing this pack in 4 hours. It took me a week to complete on my build. My completed bus looks really amazing, though did have a few small problems along the way.

[@robertgripton4499]

That looked very very time consuming with all the HT and other electrical wires of the engine bay. Loving the build as all ways. Stay safe all.

[@djstehle9061]

Yet another great build!

[@petermerz2704]

Looks great Wayne! Lots of fidely stuff in that pac! Happy days and model on! 😎

[@rickgregory9616]

What a great build. I love long builds. Especially as detailed as this. Nice way to spend a weekend. I'm sorry that one of the HT leads broke. Dumb idea to put stickers on them. They could have put them in their own bag or something. I wonder if soaking them in Goo Gone would have worked? Well done as always!

[@davidbassett4577]

Another great Routemaster video … whilst it’s pretty big already, don’t forget that the rear platform & stairs actually fit beyond the rear sub frame. Quite a few modellers had problems with those fuel injection pipes .. (some of them modded it by replacing those plastic ones with either brass or copper wire of the same thickness). Also that pipe that came off & you had to re-attach in Stage 29; quite a few broke theirs … especially when fitting the body to the chassis later in the build … it might be prudent to remove it for now; keep it safe and re-attach it once the lower deck floor/body has been mated to the chassis. Also if your planning to display it on an illuminated mirror base to show off the wonderful chassis .. you might want to paint the underside of the lower deck floor aluminium colour & paint all the visible black screw heads silver to blend in with the chassis. Hope some of that makes sense Wayne?

[@WorldofWayneUK]

Definitely . Thanks David

[@procta2343]

I enjoyed this! really coming on now, I hope you made sure the engine is fully timed up and the spark leads are in the right order! joke a side that looks like its going to be one large model once completed.

[@sabayasir-tc4iu]

Your build is so good❤❤❤❤

[@basfinnis]

That looks great. The full price kit is pretty expensive but does look really impressive 😉

[@bobbybates2614]

Hi wayne nos thats one chassis the engines of were very simple in the 60s unlike today engines compact there was a london transport repair depot

[@michaelboldys3330]

Wayne get Tea Tree Oil and drop some onto the sticky labels on those HT lead thingamy's. Do a test on one and it should come off after a bit of a soak. I hope it works, if it doesn't -"Ooops?"

[@stephenparkes626]

Morning people

[@TheWacoKid1963]

You don't get HT leads on a diesel engine, those will be fuel pipes from pump to injectors

[@johnnycooper7019]

Dear Wayne, Outstanding tutorial! The engine is just screaming for detailing, but I do have some reservations on how you will keep it intact during the rest of the build. Best Wishes Johnny

[@tonywilson2254]

Just wait till you see the terrible screws that fix the panels to the side. I glued my sides on and replaced the screws with dressmaking pin heads

[@johnnycooper7019]

Dear Tony, considering the price of this model, I would have thought that Agora would provide quality or have they discovered a licence to print even more money from the model enthusiast?

[@tonywilson2254]

@@johnnycooper7019 it will be the same again. I replaced the plastic floor with wooden strips which made it look a lot less toy like I can send you some pictures if you like

👍 Great build Wayne .... P.s. I couldn't help but notice your ALDI 👕 shirt , I didn't know you guys have them over there , we shop there also here in the 🇺🇸 USA 👍👍😄🌎

[@WorldofWayneUK]

lol. Yep we have them here but if you look closely it doesn't say Aldi......it says Baldi lol on account of me having no hair :D

[@justinn77]

[@willvolny5343]

Following your build, Wayne. Quite enjoyable! Just noted that it seems the radiator kit (stage 28) is missing from the Pack 3 they'd sent on to me late December (2022). Agora seems to run a tight ship, I ended up checking the kit for Pack 3 and 4 four times! I've contacted them, and I'm hoping for the best. Has Agora to your personal knowledge ever left out a bit of parts? I keep looking around my workshop to see if I'd somehow misplaced it!

[@WorldofWayneUK]

Sometimes but they certainly are very quick to put things right

[@allengrier4767]

This is the kind of frame and detail the fire truck should have not the cheap way they made it.

[@dhm4044]

Best way to remove those pesky tags from the wires - wet them down with lighter fluid. Let the fluid soak in to the tag and then peel off.

[@shanemandeville7455]

I'm very disappointed in Agora service as they promised me a replacement for pack 1 stage 1 and said it will be in the next shipment now into Pack 3 still nothing.. Sorry i just had vent my frustration. I think i will leave them a bad review. Love your builds thanks.

[@ranosian1135]

Tickets please (I wonder if this comes with gum under a seat like the lego version?)

[@davidbrown8517]

Hi. Always love your videos. Is it possible to explain how Agora manufacture these amazing models.

[@WorldofWayneUK]

I don't really know that side of it but if you look on their news and forums section of their website they explain the process of fabricating the vehicles etc.

[@davidbrown8517]

@@WorldofWayneUK Thank you for your reply. I will go and check it out. Agora should make a video showing how they make their amazing models. Regards David

[@davidmckirdy4063]

I tried doing this routmaster found it impossible due to screws not being the right ones and the underside not being sturdy enough I gave up didn't bother with it . I'm finding faults with all these part works but would still do the Aston Martin that was ok .

[@johnpatterson77]

I cannot get the radiator on with the silver pipe on the top. I have bent it as much as possible without breaking it. Any solutions to this problem. Also got the wrong wheels for the back. Agora will send out a replacement and that should be about 3 weeks unfortunately.

[@WorldofWayneUK]

Is the bracket that goes in behind in the right way. Mine was the wrong way round

[@milanondrak5564]

I'm converting the interior of a model of this bus on a smaller scale. I'm making it into a new age travellers bus, home.

[@codysiffles8784]

Hey Wayne. Did you have problems when you ordered the Delorean? I ordered it about a month ago and everytime i ask about it the chat support for Eagle Moss just tells me its out of stock or its for pre order. Just wondering if you ever ran into issues with this.

[@WorldofWayneUK]

I did a couple of times but never like what you are experiencing. With their move to a new warehouse I am sure things will get back to normal

[@craigthornton1971]

I’ve unfortunately had to stop this build, the leads stage got me beat. I’ve broken them (HT leads and the wires) on the first pack from Agora, a replacement, then a back order from Hachette. SO fiddly

[@mikeking2539]

Odd how the flywheel had 3 holes in it. Almost as if it should have 3 screws to hold it together!

It does look like you had some issues you edited out. The engine is where I struggle, the fuel pipes kept coming out.

@@WorldofWayneUK yeah, same here. They came out so easily. Look at it and a hose comes out.

[@dpep8033]

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news Wayne but you broke another pipe. Pity the screws into the framework are not silver as I'm sure on the real bus they won't be black but steel-coloured bolts and the black ones stand out.

[@paulwoolcott7823]

Hi Wayne was is the total cost to complete this model

[@WorldofWayneUK]

It’s 12 packs so roughly £1200

[@paulwoolcott7823]

Hi Wayne thanks for your reply £1200 a little to rich for me retired looking for a hobby. just have to keep watching your channel.
