Thank you.

Great stuff!

The main difference is an absence of obese, unhealthy people with tatoos and dyed hair . What happened to people ?

I used to get a green bus from my school into town every school day. I think it cost 5p.

Der, nothing has changed. Everything is exactly the same. It's even betterer now. Derp. My impression of a leftard.

2024 watching this feed but what about all those cars when 🇫🇴🇬🇧 had a car manufacturing history. All individual designs unlike today's cookie cutter indistinguishable models. I guess that's because I am a child of that period 😎😎

I like the bus that was being towed with the registration number beginning FKU 3:50.

Happy memories of getting trolley bus in North Ormesby to work at Cargo Fleet Steelworks. Shame we haven’t got them now. Great film, Thank you.

How can any council spend this amount of money that resulted in making the city far worse

What has happened to Bradford should be classed as a crime against humanity

1:48 - Lilycroft Road roundabout 😊

1870 surely

Thank you , this , well I am lost for words! My wife and I were the next pair due to go on the Duckhams to the Port run. We knew Paul and Collette very well , worked on Croxley with them , made an old couples day…

Like many others I have my own personal memories of RT buses in the 60s and 70s. Although the RT was hit hard during the seventies , you sometimes didn't know just how lucky you were when you saw them still running and to ride on. Thanks to the failure rate of the Merlin, Swift and Fleetline that caused the RTs to carry on. Although Routemaster RMs took their crown by the early 70s RTs still looked right still very much recognisable. As with many, I was sorry to see them go in April 1979.

My dad was a south bank driver from 1970 till 76 then he moved to central depot on parliament road where he did another ten years then je kumped sides and went to tees and district in loftus ive followed his footsteps and drove for local coach firms and now arriva .but all the other older drivers say the job has changed beyond recognition for the worse to .😢

Vote Reform UK and Make Britain Great Again.

You could catch a bus anywhere at anytime. No fuss, no noise, never remember standing waiting for a broken down bus Occasionally the pole would come off the line Out popped the driver grabbing a pole and hoisting the fallen rod back onto the line Conductors took your money and chatted You got used to the same conductors Always friendly and helpful. Shame the took them off.

I remember Ipswich in July 1981 with the ‘Regents ‘ and the legend ‘Electric House’ . They were still there remarkably in ‘85 , and I had a ride on one. They were semis👍

Superb quality film. Quite foggy in places as was common then. Singer Dionne Warwick was struck by a trolley bus in Glasgow during a foggy night. No-one heard it because they were so silent, unlike the clackety trams.

The Politicians that run Bradford should look at this video and see what a total cess pit they have made of the place.....we all know it's down to the riff raff from abroad that were allowed in and flourish with their own kind and demands while the true townsfolk are ignored. Shame on the place.

Would of loved to have driven and RT ,gives me the hump when people call it a routemaster ,those I have driven in service 😊

Pity no sounds

Well managed RT's - with a professional and often humorous conductor!

What a great film! As a native of Middlesbrough who remembers the trolleybuses as a child, I really loved seeing them again. Thanks for posting this video. E.J.M. Abbot did a great job filming this. I live in Austria now, and we still have trolleybuses in Salzburg, and Linz has both trolleybuses and trams. I have great affection for these types of public transport!

Lots of us were back there again on Saturday

Wow all those white people Which country is this plz

Magic

Bradford was so much better 50 years ago. Now it is a sesspit.

When England was English...

Look what's missing from these pictures

The UK in good times. Clear roads, not a non british import car in sight, no hood rats roaming the streets with a man bag and face covered and could buy a house with just the one wage being earned. Oh and when the UK used to have a language that was English 😉

Look how clean the streets were...Can you guess why it looks like poop now ...

Cool

11 year old me remembers this as a fabulous long day in the sun.. Traveled up from Derby on the day.

I was born in 1938 and so I remember many old machines still in service. In partiucular visits to the seaside where ancient machines eaked out a living for brave small businesses in providing mystery tours around the local countryside. Great video, well done.

Id like a time machine.

The conductor at the beginning of the video is my Father in law

the trolley bus had just been removed after i moved to Ghent

Better times by far 🥲🥲

Hello

I love these nostalgic clips. I do wonder how many thousands the council threw away on this obvious false economy. Some things never change.

Very much Burlingham trolleybuses

I can just about remember travelling on London Trolleybuses as a small child. With the advancement of battery technology I presume you could now have a fleet of electric buses serving a town without the need for what some would describe as unsightly overhead wiring. The major disadvantages of the old trolleybus systems were the poles coming off, inflexibility, if something was blocking their route, and the fact that they could not overtake each other.

21 years on in 2023 steam was back in Trimley yesterday ❤

I needed to know why they don’t dig a tunnel and do an extension for the main line Train so that they can extend the unused abandoned underground train stations. Why couldn’t they use the part D78 Stock train doors on the sides and also restructure the front face of the A60 and A62 stock and that includes the class 313, class 314 and class 315 remix and make them all together and also redesign them an overhead line and also make them into Five cars per units and also having three Disabled Toilets on that Five cars per units A60 and A62 stock trains and also convert the A60 and A62 stock trains into a Scania N112, Volvo B10M, Gardner 6LXB, Gardner 6LXC and Gardner 8LXB Diesel Engines and also put the Loud 7-Speed Voith Gearboxes even Loud 8-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Gearboxes in the A60 and A62 stock, class 313, class 314, and class 315 and also modernise the A60 and A62 stock and make it into an 11 car per unit so it could have fewer doors, more tables, computers and mobile phone chargers. A Stock Trains and also having 8 Disabled Toilets on those A stock trains. Why couldn’t we refurbish and modernise the Waterloo and city line Triple-Track train tunnel and make it more Larger and extend it to the bank station, making it into a Triple-Track Railway Line so those Five countries such as Australia, Germany, Italy, Poland And Sweden to convert the waterloo and city line Triple-Track Railway tunnel into a High-Speed Railway lines? The Third Euro tunnel Triple-Track Railway line to make it 11 times better for passengers so they could go from A to B. Then put the modernised 11 car per unit A Stock and put them on a bigger modernised Waterloo and city line Triple-Track train tunnel so it could go to bank station to those Five countries such as Australia, Germany, Italy, Poland And Sweden. The modernised refurbished 11 cars per unit A stock could be a High Speed The Third Triple-Track Euro Tunnel Train So it is promising and 47 times a lot more possible to do this kind of project if that will be OK for London Australia, Germany, Italy, Poland And Sweden. oh by the way, could they also tunnel the Triple-Track Railway Line so it will stop from Buckinghamshire, Hertfordshire and Essex so that the Passengers will go to Australia, Germany, Italy, Poland and Sweden and also extend the Triple-Track Railway Line from the Bank to Buckinghamshire, Hertfordshire and Essex Stations so that more people from there could go to Australia, Germany, Italy, Poland And Sweden more and more Easily? Why couldn't they extend the Piccadilly line and also build a brand-new underground train station so it could go even further right up to Clapton, Wood Street can they also make another brand new underground train station in Chingford and could they extend the Piccadilly Line and the DLR right up to Chingford? All of the classes 150, 155, 154, 117, 114, 105, and 106, will be replaced by all of the Scania N112, Volvo B10M, Gardner 6LXB, Gardner 6LXC and Gardner 8LXB Diesel Five carriages three disabled toilets are air conditioning trains including Highams Park for extended roots which is the Piccadilly line and the DLR trains. Could you also convert all of the 1973 stock trains into an air-conditioned maximum speed 78 km/hours (48 MPH) re-refurbished and make it into a 8 cars per unit if that will be alright, and also extend all of the Piccadilly train stations to make more space for all of the extended 8 car per unit 1973 stock air condition trains and can you also build another Mayflower and Tornado Steam Locomotive Companies and can they order Every 37 Octagon and Every 17 Hexagon shape LNER diagram unique small no.13 and unique small no.11 Boilers from those Countries such as Greece, Italy, Poland, and Sweden, can they make Mayflower and Tornado Steam Locomotive speeds by up to 142MPH so you can try and test it on the Original Mainline so it will be much more safer for the Passengers to enjoy the 142MPH speed Limit only for HS2 and Channel Tunnel mainline services, if they needed 16 Carriages Per units, can they use those class 55’s, class 44’s, class 40’s and class 43HST Diesel Locomotive’s right at the Back of those 18 Carriages Per Units so they can take over at the Back to let those Mayflower and Tornado Steam Locomotive’s have a rest for those interesting Journeys Please!!!!!!, oh can you make all of those Coal Boxes’s 17 Tonnes for all of those 142MPH Mayflower and Tornado Steam Locomotive’s so the Companies will Understand us PASSENGER’S!!!!! so please make sure that the Builders can do as they are told!!!! And please do something about these very very important Professional ideas Please? Prime Minister of England, Prime Minister of Australia, Prime Minister of Sweden, Prime Minister of Germany, Prime Minister of Italy, Prime Minister of Poland and that Includes the Mayor of London.

Last tbuses in England

1:50 - Weird seeing an OJD___R number plate on anything other than a bus!

This is my favourite bus ipswich have ever had in service, I used to love sitting just to the right of the entry doors and watching the driver go through the gears. I would love to drive one one day. Great video 👍

Great stuff!! I remember on cold wet nights how the lines used to spark!! Then the curses of the driver attaching the arms back on to the wires with a big long pole!! Everybody cheering when the lights came back on, then off the bus went!!…. I always liked riding the “trackless” from Smeaton street school,were it use to turn around, to Eston square!!…

Excellent quality what did you use to scan it?
