Kickdown? Journey on Route 370 | VDL DB300 Wright Gemini 2 | Arriva London

To be honest it sounds like this bus has kickdown but I’m not really sure. I’m pretty sure I’ve been on this bus before and it did not act like this. Maybe I’m wrong but it might just be a high rev setup. The main reason for me not knowing is because I forgot the fleet number of this bus
370 is not really a route that I’d do a journey on because of my bad luck with slow drivers but people have been telling me to try it out. Ibr the 370 is a great route and the best sections of the route are surprisingly from Romford Station to Upminster and after Ockendon. I’ve got another journey with a better bus and better driver so that will come out soon

I mean I reckon this could be DW232 or smth, nice journey

[@ThomasGilbey]

No its not DW232 cuz I was on this and it didn't sound like that

[@EastLondonTransit]

[@MrBoombastic1]

Sounds very weird for a DW

[@EastLondonTransit]

Yeah I understand. Only 2 or 3 DW’s from GY sound like this

[@ThomasGilbey]

What DW was this

[@EastLondonTransit]

This was the one time that I forgot to look 😭

[@ThomasGilbey]

@@EastLondonTransit 😭 btw have tried DW228 that one is the best one of the batch

[@EastLondonTransit]

I’ll be honest, I’d say that DW206 is the best but 228 is good as well

[@ThomasGilbey]

@@EastLondonTransit Nah DW206 is second but DW228 is better I've been on it and it revs higher than DW206

[@EastLondonTransit]

@@ThomasGilbey I might have to try go on 228 again. The only reason that I say 206 is better is because it also has high revs and it downshifts very easily
