- Buses galore at the 17th Yorkshire Dales Preserved Bus Running Day held on Sunday 8th October 2023 in Skipton, North Yorkshire. Features a variety of single and double decker buses of varying ages, sizes and colours at the Coach Street Car Park and Skipton Bus Station. Join me, as I take a ride on a single deck 1949 Leyland PS1 bus.

Many thanks Alan, brought back so many memories, school buses, and the Royal Blues passing through. Take care.
Thanks Christine, glad you enjoyed watching. My memories are of London Transport buses, all the best.
Looks like it was a great day out. Fantastic old buses.
It certainly was, shame we didn't have more time to travel on the buses.
Alan. This really cheered me up being a confirmed Bus and Truck man. The Albion was a dream. Just getting over a bug so this has made my day. Very well done .Bob and Helen.
I hope you’re much better now Bob. I enjoy Bus Running Days, not done any for years and managed two this year. All the best, hope you both have a great Christmas.
Thanks Alan for these fantastic views of all the old buses, some types were ones that I travelled to and from school in the 1960s. Take care and all the best. Stevie
Likewise Stevie, for me it was the London Transport buses. Glad it brought back some memories, hopefully good ones. All the best, keep safe.
Loving this one as we live in Skipton now.......
Let’s hope it’s an annual event and will be on again next year.
So much fun. It is amazing to me that many OLD UK buses look so much like our CURRENT buses. As far as bus design goes - we are well behind the curve. Some of the ones here were very similar to ones my husband used to take in Coventry to get to school. We are really enjoying your heritage videos!
Hi Justine, thank you so much for commenting and your appreciation of the channel. The basic outline of a bus hasn’t really changed but now one man operation, doors, cctv, hydraulics to lower and raise, greater capacity, are all changes that have come over the years.
Alan thank you for taking me along to see the vintage busses and your choice of music was perfect. Hope you are having a good holiday season. Be safe and healthy
Thank you Ginger, glad you enjoyed watching. All is good thanks, hope you’re keeping well, take care.
The old buses Are always somthing else i grew up in Islington London & we had trolly buses running & then diesel took over.
Take care Alan.
Hi Bob, I also grew up in Islington and remember the trolley buses well. All the best, cheers.
Cheers Alan, the vintage buses have so much more character than today’s vehicles. I can’t see there being much interest in the ones I currently drive when they classify as vintage.
Hi Paul. I think there may be interest from those youngsters that travel on them today. I don’t think you’ve mentioned before about driving buses, I always thought that was an interesting job when there was two person operation. Cheers
@@InterestInHeritage yes I’m sure it was. I’ve been driving them for 25 years now. I have driven some of the models shown in this vlog 👍
@@paulturner7837 That's very interesting to know, it must give you great satisfaction, and to be part of a very useful and important public service, so let me thank you for once. All the best.
Those are really neat buses. That would be very great look at all the different buses, and how they drive. Love the different engine sounds of each bus.
It's the engine sounds that always get me, a reminder of travelling to school on London's buses. There are so many different coachwork companies, that bodies/seat layouts vary a lot between different bus operating companies.
Looked like a really good day out. Would have liked to go.
It was great fun, wish we had time for more rides.
Very nice vlog Alan we went to a open day a few years ago on the RHDR at Romney there a great day out, went to an open day this year not far from Mablethorpe lf you ever get into Manchester visit the bus museum at the old Queens Road garage takecare Rob.😊
Thank you Rob, I've always enjoyed bus running days and was once a member of a bus society. Manchester is somewhere I never go, as I've had no need to go there, but I'll certainly remember about the bus museum. Cheers
Evening Alan, what a gloriously nostalgic sight, to see all of those beautiful old buses. I kept thinking that James Herriot was going to get on or off. Lovely video...🍷🍷
Evening Steve, I love these bus running days and I’ve managed two this year. The Leyland Lion is used in the current All Creatures Series. All the best🥂
You can just see bus, trundling through the Dales, glorious! Cheers Alan..🍷🍷
@@stevehoare6378A lovely sight, red against a green background.
Looks like a fun day out. When I was a wee boy my aunts took me into Glasgow to ride on the last tram run.
Sally and I really enjoyed it. That must have been quite exciting, especially when looking back.
I do look back on this as one of my best memories @@InterestInHeritage
A memory well worth keeping! @@hughcarson6837
I really like the channel showing the different styles and eras. Watch occasionally another channel called Pete's Bus, I think. A suggestion would be to possibly slow the opening montage pace a bit. It seems a bit fast-paced to me.
Thanks very much. I understand what you’re saying. It’s fast paced to fit the intro music, if the images were shown for a longer period, there would be fewer of them. They’re meant to give a flavour of the channel. Cheers, thanks for commenting.
Thanks for another interesting video. We are wondering if the busses are part of a museum, privately owned, or perhaps owned by members of a club? It is wonderful to see them preserved and enjoyed. Warmest regards, Bill and Alice in Idaho USA
Hi Bill and Alice. I’m glad you enjoyed watching. Most of the buses are privately owned, some will be group owned, some might be operator owned. I’ve always enjoyed a classic bus running day. All the best, take care.
Great stuff Alan, some wonderful engine sounds. Who owns all the busses, individuals or parts of collections?
Thank you Andy. The buses are owned by private individuals, bus groups and some by operating companies, a real mix.
