    My wife took this bus a few years ago, and I envied her a lot for having this opportunity. Now I was able to see the ride while sitting on the couch, thanks a lot for sharing it!

    I am a retired National Express driver and did this journey many times starting at Swansea on the old 201 service to the airports H/Row and Gatwick, sitting at my computer and watching this video brings back so many memories . Of course this model coach was just a dream back in the 90's but the route and the atmosphere are the same

    Always found the 501 Nat express to Exeter very calming. Suspect the fact the vehicle is speed limited + plenty of torque it just floats down the motorway - all credit to the drivers really. Volvo/Scania regardless.

    I drive for Edwards in Bristol. I drive the Boa Vistas on the 040 nearly every day. The newer 18 plates are the better ones, they do 62mph instead of the 60 limited 66 plate older ones, plus their acceleration and braking is a lot less worn of course. Many hundreds of thousands of miles already on the clock for all of them. They are fairly comfortable to drive too.

    Instead of closing down the whole motorway, can't they just leave one lane open? Or just use a contraflow system. Also, why does the lane closure begin miles before the intersection?

  • @clnre
    @clnre 3 роки тому

    I see a section of the M4 was closed to convert it to a 'smart' (dangerous) motorway, by changing the hard shoulder to a running lane. Highways England have been doing this work for years and it still looks like they have an awful lot still to do. When will this work be completed and the cones removed??

      @davidaarthur 3 роки тому

      It's the distance between the chevrons that matters - if they only painted one, it would need to be enormous. We used to have these in Canada some years ago, but they've given up on them for some reason.

    • @Thursdaym2
      @Thursdaym2 3 роки тому

      Think I know what you mean.
      However, one chevron twice the distance apart, that right, would mean idiots bunching up given the extra distance between chevrons. They are on the M5 approaching Somerset and work well so why change.
