Thank you, Matilda, for your interesting video. Among other things, it confirmed my memory that the Ribble buses that ran through the village in Yorkshire,where I lived during WW11, were actually that lovely dark red or maroon colour! I had begun to doubt my memory, having only seen different liveries in books recently.
Looks like a great day out. Lovely vintage vehicles and they all look so immaculate 🤩. And travelling on the top deck of an open top bus is just the best. I once got an open top bus all the way from Porthmadog to Bangor (I think) and it was awesome 😎. Thank you Matilda and Mum 🥰
What a great video, it brought back memories of when I used to drive similar busses to those many years ago. In the winter the cab was very cold and the steering very heavy, no power steering in those days but driving those buses was the best job I ever had
Lovely video Matilda, and Mum! It's great to see all these buses preserved and displayed for people to learn about what life was like in the era when they were in regular service.
It was worth waiting for! I loved it in sunny Morecambe, and I have to say that you questioning is enjoyable and intelligent which reflects some planning. Well done! Crack on to the next adventure! It's your irrespressable enthusiasm that make each video so much fun! Rob
Amazing selection there Matilda, and full credit to the enthusiasts who keep them in such excellent condition. Our school bus, around 60 years ago, was used in the morning to transport coal miners, and then for us kids to go to school. If you slapped the seats a cloud of coal dust would come up 😂. Bob M.
Well done lass it is rare to see girls interested in the old style buses as it seems to be a more of a Man's think not that I am judging I always like seeing girls and ladies who are keen on preserving the future.
I've been on the old Lytham St Annes single decker before. That body is experimentally made out of metal, becsuse it's from the 1930s, most buses were made out of wood. Love the Blackpool Open Topper which looks quite younger than the rest of them, but a great way to spend a day flying along the coast on the top deck
What a great event. A shame we couldn't make it but enjoyed seeing the J Fishwick & Sons and the Ribble buses that both of us travelled on in the 60s and 70s. Hope you can now tell the difference between a bus and a coach 😂😂 Well done for a wonderful video full of nostalgia 😊😊

Thanks for a great interview with the owner of that special 1961 Leyland bus. It would be fun to drive one of those classic beauties! I love British buses, thank you, Matilda!
Harrington bodied Leyland Leopard. I just typed that when the owner described what it was. If we ever meet at a show, you can have a drive of one of our Leyland Nationals, Matilda.

Going to a Bus event this Sunday celebrating 70 years of the Routemaster. And it's being held at a Steam Railway so even better.

Great Video Matilda I Enjoyed It That Was A Fantastic Event😊
It certainly was 😊👍😊
Great. Liked the interviews. Some great buses there today. I didn't know which to travel on. Spoilt for choice. 👍
We chose open top it was so hot 🥵
@@matildariverwaldennews I choose enclosed double decker. Not too bad with breeze flowing through
7:58 very true! When you needed your chimney swept you could just send a small child up, what could go wrong? Pesky health & safety changed all that!
