Cab POV: Metroline Route 90: Feltham, Leisure West - Northolt Stn | Wright Gemini 2 Volvo B9TL ZF

This time round in the Cab POV series we have a Wright Gemini 2, Volvo B9TL chassis again, but this time with a 6-Speed ZF EcoLife gearbox. The more popular kind in London...
Join us on a late trip in service on Route 90, passing through Feltham, Hatton Cross, Hayes, Harlington, Yeading and finally Northolt. Apart from how busy the route can can get, I find it alright especially the sections between Hatton and Harlington and the Uxbridge Road stretch. Said sections allow buses like the Metroline VWs to hit the lovely limiter of 37mph, but still it's something... 😅
Great thanks to the driver for making this possible! 🙏🏾
And don't get too annoyed at the beeping each time the handbrake comes off before the doors shut 🤣
Enjoy the video!

Nice Video! It's good that you did this on a B9TL before the route gets electrics later on this year!

[@welshbusenthusiast2210]

Great video as always mate! I was laughing at how sensitive the Greenroad is as well compared to the buses at my local depot. Some of that cornering would be green here! Can’t wait to see more!

[@Frozzles]

Much appreciated! Yeah it seems to just go off whenever it feels like 😂 Ive heard many complaints about it as well! You guys have it easy!

[@welshbusenthusiast2210]

@@Frozzles Oh aye, that video of Pulsar 2935 you saw just over a week ago only had 3 flashes of yellow 🤣

[@themidlandsbuses]

Nice one! There used to be a B9TL in my area but now its at hatfield.

[@Frozzles]

Thanks bro! Is it plated C14 UNO? That one sounds good!

[@themidlandsbuses]

@@Frozzles ofc, It was c14 uno. It was a good gemini but I've only rode it once but I'm planning on catching it in the near future.
