It is lovely to see these two old-timers still alive and kicking! I own ex LT M1100 which followed M1441 around during a lot of its LT career at Brixton, Streatham and Croydon so it is lovely to see a stablemate still alive and well.
The 6 cyl Gardner's are a work of art. Worked on them a long time ago, lots of great features. Able to test each injector using the injector pump was great. Had them in underground locos & on the surface in Smiths excavators. They are like a Swiss watch.
We had MCW at shepherd's Bush bus garage 1982/83 they took the place of the DM and RM,we had a permanent engineer from Metro at the garage,I remember the air bag shocks use to collapse all the time,I was a trainee bus mechanic at the garage.
They had some old MCW's on the South Yorkshire fleet many years ago when I was younger. Always thought they had a personality all their own because they sounded so different from the Leyland Atlantians. The one with the stepped windscreen are the ones that I remember seeing mostly in Sheffield
I remember been in Eldon Square bus station in Newcastle in the 80s with loads of theses pulling in. The smell was crazy as it was a indoor bus station.
The MCW was my favourite OPO as a London bus driver, remember the accelerator was never immediately responsive. That said, anything was better than the DMS with its bouncy leaf spring suspension.
Lots of Metrobuses i rode on with Lincolnshire Roadcar/ Stagecoach Lincs sounded like a box of crickets. The final ones were 26 yrs old when they got withdrawn and some had just been tested before being scrapped. They also hated reversing as well.
I drove MAN SL202s with the same gearbox as these and reversing was "amusing". It was obviously a built in safety feature, only allowing you to move the bus a bit at a time. They never jumped out of gear though.
@@jamesfrench7299 Voith probably added that safety feature to minimise the risk of collisions and less damage if one happened. On later Voith's they removed it had a limited speed when reversing like on all autoboxes.
@@jaggass driver feedback must have filtered back to them! Good in principle, but more of a hinderance in practice. I personally liked it, but was a worry up a slope. Secret was squeeze throttle, engine revs then engages the gear, moves a bit then starts to stall, back off repeat.
The MK1 is on a C plate and the MK2 is on an A plate ?? The A reg was from August 1983 to August 1984 and the C reg was from August 1985 to August 1986 so how did that happen ? ! ....The only logical explanation could be that MCW had both the MK1 and MK2 busses in production before the MK1 was discontinued... or the MK1 you have was built in 1983/84 but not sold/registered until late 1985/early 1986 ?? Great interesting videos ! 👍👍... as I remember these MCW MK1's were running in Hackney/Stoke Newington/Stamford Hill as the number 67 about 1983 but they were on a T plate to W plate at the time in December 1983 when I was only 6 ! and my mum used to take me with her on the buses shopping ! there was also the 149 but they were always good old Route Master busses and very cold in the winter with no back doors !
Mk1 design continued upto 1440/C registration for London Transport. They (LT) ceased ordering Metrobuses at that point. This added to MCW's demise, 3 years later.
LT ordered two Mk2's as a trial. A441UUV and A442UUV. But continued ordering the Mk1 until 1985. A442UUV had a Cummins L10 engine and a Maxwell transmission, and has since been scrapped.
@BITTYBOY121 I'm pretty sure they continued to order the Mk1 because the drivers view was better, because of the asymmetrical windscreen. They ordered hundreds of A, B and C registered ones.
When 1440 was not on private hires and my DMS trainer {2397} was in on rota, I used 1440 for training. Just put L plates on and away we went. I used to park up my training bus at Sutton garage.
Looks like 1441 was an old ensign bus until you pulled it out it had imperial on the front of it what was it an old ensign bus or imperial bus as my local operator is ensign bus the Gardner engine sounds sweet. It would be nice to see inside the buses doesn't matter what they look like inside as I,am bus enthusiasts.
The mark two left hand side needs a new tyre as l noticed that their was a problem with it l did not want you to have a blow out on it as the tyre needs changing as their is a sign that the back tyre is due to bust theirs a line a cross the middle the mark two needs to be kept off the roads till you get it changed health and safety risk and it's a health and safety risk at work
M1441 & M1442 were delivered out of sequence in 1984 as part of the AVE (Alternate Vehicle Evaluation) Trials (included 4 new types for potential future orders - this, the MkII Metrobus; the Dennis Dominator; the Leyland Olympian & the Volvo Ailsa. The Olympian was the type chosen and was the last mass order placed by the old LT before de-regulation). The earlier batch of LT Mk1 Metrobuses had all their numbers allocated/reserved up to M1440, as this was a huge order for the type, and would take another year or so for deliveries of those to be complete. So, the MkII's had to start at M1441 - onwards. They were both delivered to Stockwell garage in August 1984 and ran on route 170, plus moonlighted on route 44 on Sundays. Great to see both M1440 & M1441 survive; the dream would be to see both restored to original delivery condition (LT red, yellow doors, white roundels etc.)
So I’ve obviously seen it on the 154 through Roundshaw or the 157 in the 90s after they cascaded the metros into Sutton to replace the Iveco engined DMS fleet. It probably stayed there till 97 ish when the new Volvo fleet arrived. Looks very different now... but then so does Roundshaw.

Why they scrapped all these is beyond me, when they couldve all been saved in a hanger for years and retro fitted into electric motors for the clean air conscious folk of tody
Original Tour retrofitted a few of them with Cummins engines about 15 years ago and a few Olympians , I'm sure Big Bus Tours had some retrofitted Titans aswell around that time .
I've seen an MCW Metrobus driving through Boston back in 2021. It was probably one of the preserved ones going to somewhere in Lincolnshire for a heritage service....
It is lovely to see these two old-timers still alive and kicking! I own ex LT M1100 which followed M1441 around during a lot of its LT career at Brixton, Streatham and Croydon so it is lovely to see a stablemate still alive and well.
Would love to own a metrobus. Loved driving them down Finchley road.
Glad 1440 is still around. I drove it many times when I was at Sutton garage on the 293s and 420s. It was a bit of a flyer.
The 6 cyl Gardner's are a work of art. Worked on them a long time ago, lots of great features. Able to test each injector using the injector pump was great. Had them in underground locos & on the surface in Smiths excavators. They are like a Swiss watch.

Blimey, I remember DMS 1 parked out the front apron at Shepherds Bush Garage - brand new, in fact I've got a
b + w photo, bout 1970, I think.

I’m from Sheffield myself and remember
I remember been in Eldon Square bus station in Newcastle in the 80s with loads of theses pulling in. The smell was crazy as it was a indoor bus station.
That would have been the PTE ones from Byker and Slatyford
M1440 looked lovely in the London General PH livery, hope to see her one day looking splendid again
The MCW was my favourite OPO as a London bus driver, remember the accelerator was never immediately responsive. That said, anything was better than the DMS with its bouncy leaf spring suspension.
The MK I Metro is a beast! Love how smokey it is
later Gardners had higher compression to reduce cold smoking
Thank you again for sharing your nice bus collection with us, and for telling some details about them
Remember them well from years of operation here in the West Midlands metrobus 1 and 2 made here in Birmingham as well
Love what you are doing with these great buses ! Just subbed

Remember the first MCW’s delivered to GMB in the early 80’s. Brilliant kit. Great to drive
The mark two bus came originally from hull from stagecoach
You should do these up in london transport and west midlands livery
I can remember 141 running around Cambridge on the Cambridge blue routes!!
love buses love see you still doing it good on yer mick
We still have these for are school buses! At least they are still using the built to last buses!
Goodness, I remember when these were new and in service (277) Where does the time go!

Thanks again for sharing your fleet and especially the lesser known ones
Great pair! I hope you can keep them together and return them to red.
Do still have MCW in UK for bus services now?
Looks like the mk2 could have been on the Ensign Bus fleet. It has the exact livery.

Are they ready to go on the road do they have their MOT’s😂
love the old metros
In decades ago, a lot of MCW bus ran on Hong Kong's road
When was the first bus built with the engine stern and not beside the driver?
Special lockdown edition. They started well and nice to see.
Great collection and good to see some Lt M class in there too
good old metros! that 38 route RM. r u restoring it?
made my day. many thanks.
I would like to live in one of those .
Hi, I just wondered what is happening to the RML, in the background?
Correct me if im wrong that's an ex ensign bus?
Both need restoring to their former glory
These buses came from hull stagecoach l recognise them these buses need to have some work done mark one right hand side light Needs replacing
Have u still got them
If put some scrap armour on it would look like a rolling fortress straight out of mad max
New here love the channel very interesting 👍

Hi there Micheal is the Allen you talk of from mcv engineering at all
Nice to see 440 again all running nicely, and slowly turning red. Is the route 38 RML a restoration in waiting or for spares?
Hazel584 1440... that number plate rings a bell... I wonder ... was it ever run out of Sutton (garage code A) ?

You have to fix the lock on the front cover of that blue bus.
I'm keen on buying one of these mcw buses
Hi Michael was wondering are you going to restore RML 884 or is it donating spares for the other buses.
I have restored some of it currently. And not been using it for spares.

The Gardner sounds good has new
Are you going to restore them?
