@@BristolRE you are welcome

Interesting that the 325's have the running plate on the off side aswell. Dont know why they dont do that at our garage

[@BristolRE]

That's how it's supposed to be, but you'd need 4 of each number, 2 would be on the bus on the road and 2 in the to be placed when refuelling. Plates are being phased out so cannot see that happening.

These buses were so AMAZING AND GREAT good job MAKE more

[@BristolRE]

Thanks

[@michaelsnm5881]

Your welcome

What was the time of the day on the roundabout - Looks like a lot of routes go through there!

[@BristolRE]

It's a busy spot all through the day, this was around 1100

[@shihanthetrainspotter]

Great video just to let you know I have done a new video it’s quiet a long on though

[@BristolRE]

Thanks, I'll take a look

[@easygo1477]

Great video Peter. Ron Leighton way is a good place to spot buses as you have that massive space to spot the buses going past. Shame 325’s not with arriva anymore as of posting but good things do come to an end that given the poor maintenance DX HAS had for the last few years, retaining the 325 again wasn’t in their favour. RIH 325 as arriva. Stupendous video I would like to mention and the sun looks great. Really was hot that day, hope you wasn’t boiling? Great video all the same

[@BristolRE]

Thank You, and I believe it was way too hot, lol

[@easygo1477]

@@BristolRE Hot weather is just generally unbearable Peter

[@BristolRE]

@@easygo1477 Yes, I very much agree with you there

[@wizzyozzy]

0:51 its actually sad to see the 325 go to go ahead.

[@BristolRE]

👍👍

[@TransportCentral]

Nice, was jus there lol

[@BristolRE]

Thanks, lol

[@londonbusfanrex]

Hey peter, just a question. Do you know what arriva bus you trained in to work for arriva?

[@BristolRE]

I didn't, I already had my licence, so after the induction and basic paperwork training I was straight to garage

[@londonbusfanrex]

Oh ok.

[@timothybird4264]

Tbh I think the quality is fine

[@BristolRE]

Thanks, just a fading of the colours as I pan round

[@TheTransportHub17]

Nice video Peter

[@BristolRE]

Thanks

[@londonbusfanrex]

Ive heard that Sullivian Buses will be leaving London in 2029 due to them not getting new tenders. Im not sure what will replace it I hope its arriva because arriva is slowly dying. Anyways Nice video Peter! (please let me know if you know whats replacing sullivian buses)

[@BristolRE]

Thanks, I have heard that TfL will no longer allow Sullivan Buses to tender for TfL work. The routes will have to be put out for tender in the usual way, so you could get Metroline, Go-Ahead or Arriva

[@londonbusfanrex]

Alright thank you for telling me and your welcome I hope its not Go Ahead and deffinetly not with 327 because Go Ahead Are so greedy.

[@BristolRE]

@@londonbusfanrex Go-Ahead will come unstuck. They are winning so many routes by putting in low bids, it will hit them financially at some point

[@mohibj]

​​​@@BristolREIs it? I hope the new companies maintain the independent operator traditions for those routes, where I can decide my duties

[@BristolRE]

@@mohibj If It's a big company like Arriva / Metroline etc then they won't, the routes will just be another route in to an existing garage
