Driving CT02 CCT - Glastonbury Festival to Westbury
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 вер 2024
- With Glastonbury Festival finished and a vast amount of festival goers on their way home, the last few services were running and the last coaches were soon on their way. I had finished the Worthy View shuttles and after a short break am now on the way back to the depot. Starting at the Glastonbury Bus and Coach station, we leave the site and head up the A361 via Pilton to join the A37, and then on a bit to Cannards Grave where we then skip over for the last bit to the Chandlers Depot in Westbury
The vehicle is Jonckheere Mistral bodied Volvo B12M CT02 CCT, the drivers window was down and the passenger door window open to let in the wonderful sounds of the engine and the fan!

Whoever trained you, they did a great job. I'm an advanced PCV driver and ex PCV instructor, regrettably now retired, but like to ride along on your vids.....excellent driving skills.
It's so strange how quickly manual buses became a thing of the past in the US and Canada when they're still common everywhere else.
When I was in elementary school (94-00) all the school buses (the yellow ones for you foreigners) my district had were manual. By the time I was 15 it seems most of them were gone and replaced by automatic buses.
More recently, I rode a coach from Heathrow to Gatwick on a business trip, but the bus felt like an auto the way it sounded.
Gatwick to Heathrow was that on the blue Airliner coach? Usually these are Mercedes Coaches or Plaxtons, both of which are fully automated
There are a lot of automatic coaches about here, but there are still some older ones knocking around that are manual, and some new ones can be manual if requested
One of the teachers from a school I took used to live in America, she said school trips out were like 4 hour drives away!
Exellent drive
Hi James. I'm a recently new coach driver although I've been driving buses for a year now. Just wondering how you set your camera up? Keep up the great videos. 👍 Steve.
Hello! Well done moving on to coaches, I hope you enjoy it! Using a Go Pro Hero 9 with a JOBY GorrilaPod, this is a mini tripod which I have put onto the front row passenger screen board. The GorrilaPod has flexible legs and is quite grippy as well. I also use a Window attachment as well
That's exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for that. Where do you drive/based? Would be great to chat and share tips
Do more Vida.
