First R910 BOU 1910 (66110) first run in 6 months

Just a few clips of R910 BOU running again today, and a quick movement around the yard. Seems healthy although the doors refuse to open right now. Apologies for the poor sound quality, but the awesome noise of a B10BLE was too much for my camera!

I remember breaking a BOU coming out Failand when the airbag on the rear right decided to protest it's air, dragged it all the way out to Clevedon, rang recovery and when it was loaded on the flatbed, took half the road with it *sigh* Miss those days

66191 & 66192 are still going strong with "First" 'Buses Of Somerset'. 66183 has been transferred up to "First" Manchester for use as a Training Vehicle. 66183/191/192 were upgraded to DDA compliance, why didn't all "First" company's do that?

Max Ganesh Do you mean 62191/2 rather than 66191/2? And 62183 etc... BoS tend to have older vehicles as they make less profit than most other parts of First, so while other areas could afford new/newer cascaded buses, BoS upgraded the older ones. some other parts of First did this though, such as Manchester (they have X699 ADK still in use) and South Yorkshire I believe (W- DWXs, R7-- WKWs and R912 BOU still in use)

[@bristoltransport]

She isn't no, she's mine. She deserves preservation so that's what she got!
