That moment when you discover the bus has a working kickdown this sums it up pretty well 😂 That one sounds pretty damned healthy too!
The dramatic *CLUNK* of the revs button just adds to the excitement 😂 This was hands down the best B7TL I have ever driven, I need to get more clips of this particular one up, 250bhp version of the D7C which was a first for me!
Kickdown is way better than lockdown.
Love this! We have a Trident that goes like stink, that was my exact reaction the first time I drove it 🤣
Sounds good.
You look happy there!! 😂 welcome back Tom. Stay safe during lockdown. Any Dublin Bus footage coming soon?
Dublin Bus Fan Yes buddy plenty of footage from my Dublin years are on the way! Now that I have the time thanks to the coronavirus, expect a lot of footage coming in the near future!
Ah right grand. Stay safe pal
Loviing the new content, it's Danny. Can't wait to see it all during lockdown :)
Awesome video Tom! Beast kickdown!
Good video can you upload more that would be really good
Welcome back tom!
The Goahead Mpire Thank you! Good to be back :-)
@@ThePlymouthRoadSurfer Soon will you be making full route videos with kickdown?
The Goahead Mpire The plan is to keep people who are stuck at home due to the COVID-19 pandemic entertained, so expect all kinds of content, but yes full route videos whilst out of service will be coming your way :-)
@@ThePlymouthRoadSurfer Ok :)
Nice video and kickdown Tom👍😊
Driven this many of times, best president was / is 670 which I think is also down south,
Yeah she’s down with us at the moment, one of my best friends drove it and was astonished by its power, very quick off the line!
We've got this at go north east
Look after her well, she’s a good’n!
@@ThePlymouthRoadSurfer sadly withdrawn now don't know where it went
@@exploringbusesandtrainsint2433 sold to an independent operator in Hull apparently.
@@ThePlymouthRoadSurfer ah right thanks for the information
Is the speedo in kmh?
The bigger numbers are yes, the mph digits are the inner numbers on the speedo 😊
So is this your job to drive buses to certain places.
Used to be, now a coach driver :-)
