    It would be rude to visit Leeds without sampling the remarkable surviving batch of iconic B7TL Geminis in almost new condition still operating out of Bramley garage with their loud cooling fans. So in this video we ride on what is currently the loudest of the cooling fan B7s based there on its regular haunt of route 40 between Seacroft and Leeds.

    This bus has a Euro 3 engine with ZF Ecomat gearbox with no ULEZ insurance. Congrats Alex, I bet your lungs were filled with smoke from that tailpipe.

    I think I need my earplugs. I have sensitive hearing and there is no way I can take this bus for like two seconds without me crying because of ear pain.
    I’m surprised Alex survived this bus ride for that long without earplugs, aye man this guy needs the Bluestar 1569 award for surviving very bad noise pollution! 😂

      It's not just this one. The 2004 B7TLs that run in Leeds mostly have loud cooling fans.

    we had afew of these in edinburgh but the fans were usually limited to around 1100rpm or what the engine sounds like around the 3:20-3:25 mark. but i have never really heard a b7tl cooling fan use the whole rpm range like this one. only cooling fans that used to sound like this were on the old leyland alexander varients back in the late 90s/00's

    Why are b7tls so looouuud???
    I know of some that are even louder than this!!!
    We get some on some of the school bus routes and my friends think that I am strange because I can tell when a certain bus is arriving by the sound!!!

    • @AndMoreCentral
      @AndMoreCentral  3 роки тому +3

      Its to do with how long the fan is kept on and at what setting its on. Clearly this is on max setting to keep the bus cool that is a sign the vehicle is suffering some mechanical issue that its easier to fix with the fan

    That sounds amazing! I love it, however as this is the loudest hoover ever on any bus, The loud cooling fan actually means it’s unhealthy don’t know if you knew that. But the sound snakes up for it! Great video 👍😀
