Oh nice you did one of Luton's good Alx400 looking forward to it mate!

[@S_T_A_R_S_]

Thanks, & yeah finally got a ride on a alx400 Trident, been trying for a while, they are so rare. Glad they are still running but not everyday in service and only 5 left.

[@TVRBCS]

@@S_T_A_R_S_ Yea these don't come out Alot nor do the londlowders. They are Double Deckers they should be used most of the time.

[@S_T_A_R_S_]

@@TVRBCS Lowlanders are even more rare, only 2 left, FE51 YWK & FD02 UKG. I've not been able to see any of them in Luton. Lowlanders are my favourite buses so I did a drawing of it for my profile picture and banner, I did get a ride in Yorkshire when I was there. They are rare over there too now.

[@CoolDrake910_Official]

Very nice ride! Would like to see you get 5429 one day!

[@S_T_A_R_S_]

Very unlikely, I do have a toy version of the bus with w429 xkx. Might make a video on that soon of don't get it irl.

[@CoolDrake910_Official]

@@S_T_A_R_S_ Oh ok, that's ok! Nice! I used to have an old routemaster bus which i brought from Poundland back in 2014, it was 8 years back.

[@S_T_A_R_S_]

Got a daf lowlander bus Spotting video coming soon FD02 UKG, there is only 1 of those left there. Extremely rare, is the best of all the buses, good condition for its age but don't know how long it will last since the rest of the entire batch are extinct and scrapped for parts at an essex depot.

[@CoolDrake910_Official]

@@S_T_A_R_S_ Amazing to know! Can't wait to see the clip! I actually rode a Lowlander when I was on a trip, it had a ZF gearbox surprisingly.

[@S_T_A_R_S_]

@@CoolDrake910_Official oh wow I used to get those as a kid, now as a grown up I got a few of the cmnl models that are rare and expensive and only adult collectables. Ukbus1010 is W429 XKX and UKbus6028 is CX58 FZV. Gonna start series on my toy buses later.

[@CoolDrake910_Official]

Woah!!! I can't wait!

[@S_T_A_R_S_]

Same, looking forward to the rewatch & to share the experience with the audience. I loved every moment being on that bus for the full journey, 36 minutes each way. Finally got a ride on the trident, they seem very worn and knackered. They are very rare, not in service that often.

[@CoolDrake910_Official]

@@S_T_A_R_S_ I even found an open top trident plaxton president yesterday on sightseeing tours. I never rode them yet. But I'm sure I will.

[@S_T_A_R_S_]

@@CoolDrake910_Official cool that would be amazing.

[@CoolDrake910_Official]

@@S_T_A_R_S_ Even better, on Wednesday Arriva is back in service, so I'll try to get 2 clips on some of their buses.

[@S_T_A_R_S_]

@@CoolDrake910_Official Great! Looking forward to them.

[@TVRBCS]

Love the ride mate! I really do love these one's, there better than the ones in High Wycombe.

[@S_T_A_R_S_]

Yeah I agree, these are better than the DB250s in High Wycombe. I finally saw FD02 UKG, captured that coming soon.

[@TVRBCS]

@@S_T_A_R_S_ Nice stuff! Just wish these Landlowders were used more. Is there a chance you can do LT63 UNV I know It's a boring one but I'd like to see how it's going on cause haven't been on it for ages.

[@S_T_A_R_S_]

@@TVRBCS oh right LT63 UNV that's the bus in front at the beginning of the video. It was the 321 bus that I was on right before I got on this 31 bus.

[@TVRBCS]

@@S_T_A_R_S_ Ye that one, it's Mostly use on 321 Alot. Same goes to the Eclipses transferred from Hemel like UNN and that.

[@S_T_A_R_S_]

@@TVRBCS yeah it had route 2 branding on it that was kind of rubbed off.
