I watch this stuff while is sleep, Very relaxing. Its not really anything that will keep me awake. Just looking at it and generally thinking about being warm and comfortable. I enjoy these videos ❤
Damn, that mileage meter in the tire :D! This is truly the KISS principle in action, keep it simple stupid. No useless shenanigans. Love it.
They do that on most commercial vehicles. For some reason the one in the dash isn't very reliable.
Be quiet
Bro post more I’m 15 and wanna be a bus driver with my CDL I love these pov’s
Good luck in the future! I just got my CDL at age 19 to drive buses for Unitrans in Davis, CA; if you really try for it, you're gonna be a bus driver sooner than you think.
Guess it’s just a 15y/o thing😂 cuz I’m also 15 and I am in love with the way these buses turn at intersections and even just the way it’s maneuvered🤣
@@BayAreaTransitNews congrats to you 🤎
same here. 15 in NYC looking to become a bus driver here.
@@843Reboot I'm also in NY
😂 The sound from the door reminded me of riding the bus as a teenager in the 90's. Going to see a lover hehehe
One of my most favorite bus fleet and I am in process to purchase one used bus just like that and will be using for my personal use... Great video!
Good luck. Phantoms are great.
Such a fun video to watch. I want to be a bus driver when I grow up.
I always look forward to seeing new videos posted by you. Keep posting these awesome Gillig Driving videos
Glad you like them!

Awesome Video! Thank you for creating such great content! Fun to sit back and watch 👍🏽
Such an Nice bus!
Congratulations your video is in the recommended of TH-cam in Brazil
Watching from India.
So calming to see how you followed each traffic signal and co-operated with the passer bys .. so satisfying.
Thank you for the video.
What a fun bus 🚌 ride video.
this is so cool and calm to watch love it
back when i was younger my family didnt have a car so we used to wake up at like 5am and get on the bus so i could get to school and just any bus related stuff makes me super nostalgic
Very enjoyable video and I could watch this all day. I'm a 20 year bus driver and I miss the old cooler buses here in the UK but every day it's a boring electric bus.
Oh nice congrats on driving the electric bus that's so awesome also how do you like ur job?
nice bro. I'm 28 and drive buses on mine sites
In my country the older buses are so loud and non air-conditioned, and hence the new electric air-conditioned quiet buses are so much welcome here.
We have a 35 ft Phantom in our fleet too. They bought it used in 2017. It's sweet lol. The AC is ice cold, it makes it a freezer in there. I love it. It's the most diverse fleet of buses I think in existence.
Oii
@@arthurdejesus7126 du nada kkkk
Which is why some transit companies keep them for 20 years or more! Maximum up to 25 years of service
This is a very good sounding engine!
That phantom still sounds good my god. I’m dead now 😵😵😵
That bus looks fun to drive
Old but gold, might be an old bus but she still sounds good and for the fact that she has a lot of milage on her, it makes her special. Lot of history on that machine. The squeek sounds also makes a good noise to sleep not gonna lie, I might sound weird but i love the sound of an old "truck" with the good old noises from the chassis. Keep up the good work, I love these kind of videos. Much love from Portugal

Idk if it's weird or not but I like the squeaks too and the rattles in an old bus or even new it's part of the feel of the bus.
That moment where he flipped the switch at 2:08 the sound of the air pressure and the bus is amazing, it sent chills up my spine.

I enjoyed watching this. I have autism and I have a fascinating with all types of buses. From School Buses to City buses and every other bus in between. I use to ride the city bus in the city I use to live in. I glad you recorded to have an up front view from the drivers seat.
I love your videos
Ever since I was a kid, I was fascinated by buses with a horizontal steering wheel. I have a vague memory of sitting in the driver's seat of one but I've no idea how that's possible. Anyways, thanks for the video!
I was also intrigued by them lol. I still don't understand how some people drive with the wheel completely horizontal, as I adjust mine to be as angled as I can handle.
As one that takes buses all the time I am bus crazy. I love the bus. I am totally blind and a business owner. Bus is the way to go man. They can go places where a train can’t go. I have some headphones and I put them on and listen to this bus and man!!! It feels like you are actually riding on the bus. It is that good the quality of the video and headphones makes you feel like you are on the bus I mean you can hear the pre trip and radio chatter a little and it is something else. 3d sound here. You got to do more bus driving videos. Also wonder if you can get your hands on an old Chevy suburban and drive that. Those things were like buses. The old suburbans. Not the new subs but the old ones. I wonder if you can get your hands on one of those. It would bee fun to hear a P.O.V. Drive in an old suburban. I remember back then in the 1980’s and such people would call everything a truck or bus hahahaha cause it was so huge back then. But i do recall very plainly people would talk about the suburban like a bus. They would say things like this. “Well, I got to get the bus.” “Let me pull the bus around.” And everyone knew what you were talking about back then. Cause the sub was like a little bus. Those giant suburbans. Hahaha keep those bus videos coming. I always tell people when they ask me what mode of transportation do I think is used more for commuting I always say well, it is said that the bus is more of a commuter transport. I mean you have commuter rail but the train is a little different. It is more for long haul and romantic time. It makes you feel that romantic feel as it lolls you to sleep its got more of a gentle sway to it but the bus is more for commuting and daily work. Plus the movement of a bus is a bit different. Feels more like you are commuting. It’s bouncier and it has more of a jerky feel. Greyhounds are used for long haul of course not to say that their no long haul buses of course their are and tour buses but all in all when you think of a bus the bus is used for 2 things really. Taking kids to school or commuting to and from work. Course you have buses for cross country and tour but really when I think of the bus I think of more of a commuter vehicle. And you are sitting more rigid. In the seat. The train seat you are more layed back and relaxed. The bus is top heavy and bouncers and there is a jerky feel to it. Really the only thing you feel in a train’s travel is the bumps of the rails and maybe a jerk from the engine but it is more sway like and quite romantic in its travel. Where the bus speaks more work life and school life.even between the two buses. A school bus feels different than riding a transit bus. Yes. You actually feel a little difference. But a bus is a form of transport that will have you commuting to school or work. I guess it is like backpack and brief case although you have professional backpacks as well but kind of the same thing. Trains were meant for nostalgia and romantic feel long haul ground travel the bus is their to commute and go to school or work. With the exception of cross country greyhound buses and tour buses. That is an exception hahaha. Someone asked me though one time which mode of transportation I thought was meant more for commuting and I answered back that even though their is commuter rails in some places the bus dominates the commuting world. You use the bus for school and you use it for going to work more so than a train. A train won’t get you to school or to work. I mean in some big cities there are exceptions that a train will get you close but not exactly to close like a bus can. So it’s common sense that the bus is used for commuting. People take more buses for commuting than trains. And if it is commuting by car or bus or truck or van, I would think that that is a bit harder to say but i think its half. But I don’t know. When I hear a train I really don’t think of commuting. When I hear a bus though I think of commuting for sure. Buses move us from point a to b every day where as a train with the exception of new York or Chicago even then they have buses but the bus rules the commuter world. So for commuting it has to bee the bus.
Trrre
Wow so beautiful and clean City
Thanks Eugene! My god this bus is awesome
I do love these Phantoms
I love your thinking.....!!!!
Just like me.....!!!!
God bless you...........!!!!!
Nice turns man good job
godd job on it i love it
Excelente video, saludos desde MEXICO.
that looks fun to drive.
1:44 the feeling that this whole thing is mine😂
You must have some of the top-notch mechanics at your garage. This bus doesn't sound NEARLY as bad as some 21 year old vehicles I've heard. :-D
Good maintenance + good powertrain + good bus design + good environment = good condition.
this bus sounds better than some of the 5 yr old busses i've driven LOL
Quite frankly, they were quite poorly maintained more recently than not. They were also absolutely abused. The fact that they are still in service is a testament to their design and build quality.
@@eugew23 Oh, wow. But those vehicles ARE work-horses. :-D
Don't ever come to the UK cause the buses here totally suck. I drive 2021 Yutong E12 electric buses and watching your video just now I feel terribly jealous at how cool your bus is. Maryland looks like a cool place.
Man, I would hate driving with that squeek all day. Thanks for a great video! I see a lot of potential in your channel.
Doesn't all buses squeak all day, especially with hard plastic seats? I don't understand why US and Canadian transit bus look uncomfortable compared to European buses from the same era?
Most US and Canadian transit buses from the late 90's and early 2000's seem to prefer having hard plastic seats instead of fabric.
@@automation7295 those are "anti stab seats" yea i know that sounds weird but some european countries like Spain and Italy have them as well
@@user-df3ty8ei2u They may be anti-stab seats, which is a good thing if someone tries to stab you, but they're still uncomfortable to sit on.
@@automation7295 well buses need to get you to point a to point b so they really don't need to be fancy-looking or comfortable
@@user-df3ty8ei2u Well some bus routes can be very long. The fact you don't need fancy-looking or comfortable seats on buses isn't really needed, but some people still prefer comfort.
Buses having hard plastic seat still doesn't stop people for preferring more comfortable seats.
Automatically subscribe ! The Quality is the same as any POV Driving out there (this one even better) and its not regular car, it's a BUS
You have very good visibility from there, the buses I drive here in Buenos Aires an extra pillar on the sides or wide singles. Every corner requires some forward tilting to see round the corners.
Hi, colleague, nice to see you.
shes a beauty!
I've always wanted to try driving a bus 😊
Love to take ride in that bus. Awesome 👌
That’s a interesting way you guys spec your mirrors compared to other transit companies most transit companies use 1 peace mirrors it’s rare to see 2 peace mirrors
All our buses through 2010 have this two-piece design. Quite frankly, I don't mind the way they look and the convex mirrors on these older models are larger and more useful than the newer ones.
Daaaaamn! This kind of dashboard was retired from Madrid, Spain in the early 80's
Love your bus👍
i love your videos
My state has retired some gillig phantoms from early 2000s, we had some gillig phantoms from the late ‘90s, they began retiring the fleet in 2018 and now this year there’s no more of the ‘90s phantoms
Nice video, keep them coming, I wish you could make longer videos. BTW, what a crappy passenger you took, no hello, no thank you, no goodbye. lol
From August 1991 to May 1999, I frequently rode on a Gillig Phantom bus similar to this one, operated by Butte County Transit and CATS, consolidated recently as B-Line. They circulated the streets of Chico, California, six days a week, some of them as late as 10 PM. Rides were free with a current California State University id card, called a "Wildcat ID card", I am not sure if the University of Maryland does the same thing. Busses were, more often that not, crowded on rainy days.
Even after May 1999, SamTrans used Gillig Phantoms for many years after that. I rode the line 250 from just outside my apartment in Foster City to the Hillsdale Caltrain rail station and back, and those Gillig Phantoms used reminded me very much of what I rode in college.
The University of Maryland buses are free for all. Routes that operate primarily on campus do not require any form of identification to ride. Routes that operate as commuter lines require university ID or town/city identification.
These Phantoms are a dying breed. I'm surprised Shuttle UM has held on to them as long as they have, considering that they were poorly maintained in more recent times. They are not in good condition. All the agencies nearby who had Phantoms recently retired them all, so it is kinda sad to see them go.

Back in April 1959 they have used All buses like that and many years back in 1903 back of those days I didn't have like that most of the time it wants to know where they came from Robbie hagberg
Great drive you are perfect
Me encanta ese colectivo
In the city where i come from in Germany, we had some old MAN NL313 1st. gen buses with 1500000+ km mileage.
Oh okay, I will guess I will be riding this bus to campus this Fall lol
Those was phased out real quickly here in Cincinnati as I got older for reasons although I've seen a couple for those just sitting at the bus station while one needs a rear airbag replaced.
How do you feel about the newest ones?
I miss driving Phantoms. These are the only spec that I've driven (Cummins ISM + Allison B400R) and the old school feel and power simply can't be matched with the modern ISLs and L9s with all the emissions regulators and DEF. Where I work now has newer Phantoms with the ISL so I wonder how it compares. I don't like the newer low floor buses as much.
Good. Drive safely
Your bus is very nice
so satisfying
Nice gameplay 😎
Yep, seems to be the inspiration for the Wentward DT40L
Dang, omsi 2 must've had a fantastic graphic update
You just got a new sub
buenisimo, que buen colectivo
What was so wrong with two steps? I wish low floors buses never existed. Handicapped lifts, I never minded waiting for! Just two extra steps give you so much more interior room, seating and comfort. Great bus!
Low Floors are superior in terms of efficiency
You can easily get on and off the bus it allows for more space to bring stuff up
High Floors do get up there for their handling and nostalgia however we need Low Floors and tbh buses like the Orion VII OG and 3rd Gens are perfect low floors
Olá esses Vidios São muito bons eles me fazem dormir
Um abraço daqui do Brasil
This one is like the Gibson SG of buses. Yup, the Gillig Phantom was a mean bus to drive...but in a fun way.
Very Good
Dang is 6 days this video will be made 2years ago 😢
i love all sound of this bus...🤩🤩🤩
Mantap sekali kawan ku, sukses selalu kawan ku👍🙏
Is the transmission automatic?
Me gusta mucho el video 👍
Ohh this is a nice bus 🚌 and I wish I could drive it.
This video inspired me to get my license B
That's awesome dude!
I don't really know much about bus designs but..
I can't find/see the indicator/signal lol
Many north american transit buses used foot mounted buttons for signals.
@@eugew23 damn thats interesting 😁
Soy un fan de los autobuses
Al gunaveS sere un gran busero
Mais um inscrito! 😀
The doors close like 5x faster than any bus nowdays
the squeaking is like music to my ears I'm used to it lol
im not from the us so seeing a uni campus that is this big is beyond me
Wait till you see A&M
do miss the phantoms
Engine sound as good ASMR
Is the door squeak fix a pretty easy repair?
I subbed before 400 subs 😔
(G)Old days 😐
Conduces muy bien
imo I would walk if I see this bus coming
lmao
it's a relic
I like the type of camera you use. What make is it? 😊 Is it a headband wearing camera? 😊
I use a GoPro Hero 8 with a hat clip.
cool

that steering wheel is ocd hell!!!
wow!
Thats my dream car at all
my dream its to drive a bus, idk why
It is Mercedes 1521 intercooler right?
Im not a big fan of the American buses because of their long wheelbase but its a great video! I also want to be a bus driver in future, but i live in europe where i think the buses are better (!OLY MY OPINION!)
North America does have its fair share of short wheelbase models, namely the 1st and 2nd gen Novabus LFS, it's a great aesthetic. I'm partial to the giant round headlight design myself. :)
I never drove a bus in my life.! But I will soon and I’m scared. I don’t want to fail☹️
hello frirnds nice to meet you I am from indonesia tank you🙏
siempre quise tener un colectivo 11a los once años
Amigo, que lindo manejar eso
Cool bus bro how old is the bus
Gutes Video aber welcher Bus ist es welche marke
This reminds me of the OMSI 2 Simulator game
