- Опубліковано 7 лют 2025
- This video shows a full front and side blind change on London United's VH45231 (BF67GKL). This is a Volvo Wright Gemini 3 Hybrid Diesel Electric Double Decker (VH) but this blindset is also on the Alexander Dennis Enviro400s as well. This bus operates from the London United RATP Group Park Royal (RP) depot.
Many thanks to the controller at Euston as well as Dean (RP manager) for helping me achieve this blindchange. I was at the controls of the blind change when the bus was parked just before the first stop at Euston, I even blinded it for the N18 to Harrow Weald and the passengers were impressed!!!

Shortest number blinds ever?, even shorter than the Sullivan AEs
Ture and pretty boring variety
Yes but it will be rare getting one on the 220. The 18 does have variety now tbh with the ADEs
But there is quite a large list of destos though
I have been on 3 of the 5 today ad ADE40430 is as sweet as a nut, a lot of des. Because both routes have a lot of curtailment places and N a load with the actually 18s, I think the 220 might take some time as they will have to test it. Also its like this some turns in Harlesden are bad and the back of the 18s swing back so that's a problem for Hammersmith with the turns
And a lot of curtailment points
Amazing blind change!
Sam Rogers thanks
Look at Dane🤣
I miss driving the 18, just dont miss the people
Not sure why the 476 hasnt been upgraded to these sexy beasts!
From when i worked there and prior, it seems NP has always been unlucky in regards to the routes or buses they get or lose that end up using Streetdecks, but NP never get their own batch, only WHVS they ever had was the G2 for route 19
Brilliant to see the blinds of a new bus! I thought there would be more routes in the blinds as well I think that Harrow should be more specific like Harrow Bus Station or Harrow Town Centre
I like to film blind change but rarely get the chance to film a full one. I may even get a visit to RP out of this lol. Maybe they could put Harrow Bus Station but it doesnt really matter theres only one curtailment point in the whole of harrow. N18 never uses that curtailment (1st time it was used was on the Saturday shift)
Do you want to know why
1.my favourite route (ROUTE 18)
2 MY favourite sound track
3 your the best bus well the best UA-camr
I hope you have a nice day
Thank You
Thanks for the vid I've got to say nice vid
Thanks
I wish double decks operate on 283, 440, and E11. VH6 was logged in on E11 at Fulwell Bus Garage Open Day.
Yes but it wont happen unfortunately as they are not on the blinds
Like H14 with Scania OmniDekka/City, it could run banditised.... but not sure if the routes have restrictions like low bridge/trees or residential roads.
283's deadrun unfortunately runs through a low bridge at Old Oak Common, and residential road at Wolmholt Road/Bryony Road (towards East Acton) Don't know much about 440/E11 routes.
They YT59 SPs are blinded for the H14 and I have filmed a banditised SP on the H14 so it can happen but St Thomas Drive roundabout is quite hard
TBT Sim Player, thats because Edgware has 1 H14 Double deck allocation, RP doesnt that why :)
do the sps have a longer wheel base h11apprentice?
Some 18’s are on London sovereign scania
Has there been a Scania Omnicity blinded for the 18?
So no 85 on their but putney bridge somehow shows up🤷🏽♂️
220s other destination blinds in case of a curtailment
@@d4rk_matrix dont mind me i was mistaken back then, i ended up joining LU and drove many VHs on the 220 and of course one of the curtailments is Putney😅🤦🏽♂️
Nice! Are the 72s going to be double decker soon??
Erick Zucconi no they will remain single deck for at least another 4 years
Unfortunately they've been rejected for the route 72 due to weak Hammersmith Bridge.
No, because Hammersmith Bridge is weak, if a double decker crossed the bridge, the bridge will collapse
@@Willzzz123 lol
nice blind change
