Good video, this and the 152 do look wonderful. Bit of First Leicester news, 35186 still not back in service, nor is 66319. Also, I believe the B7L replacements are starting to arrive. Today I saw an ex mendip explorer B7RLE, with the Eclipse 2 body on the 17, still in the mendip livery with Leicester names. However, it did say on the side, watch this space, this bus is being rebranded, which is interesting, looking forward to some new buses. Shame is the B7Ls go, I haven’t been on one in a few years and would like too.
Thanks, and I didn't even know that 66319 was off the road. I've only rode a B7L once and that was in 2007, and I believe that 66305 and 66309 have already been withdrawn too. 69437-69448 and 69457 and 69458 I take it they are.
@@CS_22 I can't say that from videos, the sound of B7Ls really meant anything to me. Not like Arriva's Lowlanders. At least Thurmaston's Geminis sound the same. I should get some more rides on them as I imagine their end will be next year.

And happy comic relief!
