It could’ve been unfortunate if that car actually crashed into the bus might of ruining the challenge . I don’t like arriva since the seat moquette looks ugly prefer stagecoach and uno . This video is so long and the longest video you ever made . I HATE the G3’s on W3 I don’t really like it but the electro liners on w7 are nice rather than the diesels . I agree that the electroliners are electric beauty . I was sad when the solo’s and the old e200’s got withdrawn. I agree the frequency is REALLY bad . The metrocity’s sound SOOO nice although I saw on Denzel’s world channel that one broke down already 😢 . I hate how the charging points are behind the glass especially since that’s my favorite seat . I don’t know why u hate the enviro 200’s , idk if it’s just me not used to electrics but I prefer diesels better . I liked when stagecoach operated w9 cuz the mmc’s suit it and looks nicer .The only problem where I live there are only 24 electric buses IN my country (Nottingham). The 29 was SO packed man .

11:39 I think the 41 is nice as it has the gemini 2 and gemini 3 mark 1 and 2 even though I don't really like the mark 2 on arriva. Nice video Godwin it felt like the superloop but longer
I couldn’t believe it when i saw the gem 3 mark 1 on the 41, then i saw it on the 243 and the 123, so it was obvious AR and AD came to some sort of agreement. I think they have a second one too. As a driver, the G3 is my favourite bus type, but I also appreciate driving the mark 1 version too with those extra headlights at the bottom.
3:18 never ever saw w3 using my favourite bus type as they used alexander denshit for so long. This would actually make me wana drive out of WN garage because the 29s and 144s use the HV also, but if had to pick, id probably go back to AR garage.
Best to stay on w3 during the ally pally section, the view will never leave you or the journey, i still have a vivid memory from the early 90s (showing my age) as a kid riding the the old double deckers
36:06 lol the w8 has defo seen better days. Ive seen them use vmh and vwh on this route, looks so much better! And teh also which i enjoyed driving but i drove the newer shape 2015 plate
31:05 i think its random. I remember noticing this same thing on 7s and other buses in the north west area, i think it was a perivale thing. How the hell are UX operating this route, do you know how far away that bloody area is😆
This inspires me to make a video at one point but riding every U prefix route 😁 anyways, nice vid Godwin Edit: 35:21 THAT BEAUTY USED TO BE AT MY LOCAL GARAGE MONTHS AGO 🥲🥲🥹 Edit: 34:17 Uxbridge is my local garage ❤ also this bus still has UX on the side so it’s basically Unrefurbished in one part
19:07 never understand why ppl press the bell when its the last stop, what do you think were gna take you back on our dead run to garage? Or just keep you on stand time with us? Or if late just go straight back in the opposite direction ? 😂
Well funny short story, I was on the 179 one evening and forgot to press the bell and was sat upstairs and got taken to the bus stand, wonder what would have happened if it was the drivers last trip 😭😂
I've been informed by a manager in Stagecoach yesterday, who chooses vehicles for new contracts, that Stagecoach will no longer be choosing Metrocities for any new contracts with single deckers as they are deemed unreliable, by the passengers, drivers and engineers, so any new Stagecoach contract route will now be receiving BZLs or Enviro100EVs, most of the Metrocities in Lea Interchange and Walthamstow Avenue have damages front and rear bumpers due to the bumper protectors, the buses tend to lean to one side when turning and need charging way to often.
Ahh I see, I did feel that there was something a bit off about the metrocities, thanks so the clarification! How do you get this information as I would love to research more into bus garages and their buses!
@GTransit I work in the Walthamstow Garage on route 397 and had a visit from the Big Manager, there are some sites I look upon for information, but I like to also ask the Manager that's above other managers in Stagecoach for relevant information
@GTransit By the way, keep up the good work with the videos, they are always a joy to watch 👍. Not only am I a Bus Driver, but I was once a bus enthusiast myself, I love Arriva's Gemini 2 DWs and Go Aheads WVNs on 476. Not too keen on Electrics however the BZLs are very pleasing on the eye especially the single deck versions and the Electroliners are great too.

It was lovely to be with you Godwin!! I had a wonderful time with you!
Yes!!! Had a lovely time!!
Such fun this was!!
Yes!!! Happy to have you back on the channel! 💙

W4 is at WN (Wood Green)

excited for the R routes 👀👀
Amazing video godwin
Thanks so much for watching!!
I hope you reach your goal soon Godwin!
Thanks so much!!
YES YES YES YES YES tysm for this vid
💙💙💙
ANOTHER Fact: The streetlite (the 456 bus) was used years ago when on the route 192 when the 192 was operated y Go-Ahead london
Yep your right, i used to drive it in 2019 when i was with go-ahead.
Sucha shit bus, my lord.
Ah I see! Thanks for the information!
I love you vids too i watch it everywhere i go

Nice one. You should do all the R Routes in one day as I’d love to see you make the long distance travel between Orpington & Richmond.
Will be in a future video!
@3:11 OI, leave Arriva alone its a good company 😂😂😭
👀👀👀
Nice vid
Thanks so much for watching!!
Lovley video Godwin. On the W11 I think there’s 2 bells one on the sets for the person sitting on the left so they don’t have to stretch out.
Ahhh that makes perfect sense, thanks for clarifying that!
Best to stay on w3 during the ally pally section, the view will never leave you or the journey, i still have a vivid memory from the early 90s (showing my age) as a kid riding the the old double deckers
Yes!! I’ve rode on the route before so know exactly what you are talking about, such a scenic and beautiful route!💙
Lol i guess im showing my age by agreeing with this comment.
Im proud to be born in 1991 so im not even hiding!
@@ace-paidinfull5240 brilliant that we can have a community of bus and tube addicts
Hi Godwin, can you do all of the B-Prefixed bus routes next?
Might be a future video!

Oooh!
This video WAS AMAZING
Thanks so much for watching!!💙
Thank u for this ramy
💙🤪
WOW 1 HOUR bro is stepping up his videos bu alot
;))
OH the other day A couple of W8's were on the ex-first enviro 400 :)
Oooh!!
Can you do more of these I like long videos and your channel is so good buses
Will do some more in the future! Thank you so much for watching!
@@GTransit
Can you do all of the buses on the whole go on all of the buses start with one
10:21 diesel? that's an evoseti, hybrid B5LH, also the e200 mmcs on w4 are 2 years older than the 192 so maybe that's why they lack chargers
Was talking about the LX58 that was in service on W5 that day.
36:06 lol the w8 has defo seen better days. Ive seen them use vmh and vwh on this route, looks so much better! And teh also which i enjoyed driving but i drove the newer shape 2015 plate

Nice, yo got on the Ex CT Plus E200 :D aka the E200 with leather seats!
Yes!!
456/W10 and W6 are my fav routes in london frfr
Nice!!
Godwin, where is the join button I don't see it
Doing all the 'A' routes (A10) would be funny as an April fools day video
LOL that’s a funny idea 🤪
31:05 i think its random. I remember noticing this same thing on 7s and other buses in the north west area, i think it was a perivale thing.
How the hell are UX operating this route, do you know how far away that bloody area is😆
LOL
At 23:08 you mentioned the W4 being at the same garage as the 192. The W4 and W6 is based at Wood Green Garage and the 192 is based at Enfield Depot
Ah thank you for the clarification!
they use a metrocity on 377 from oakwood to ponders end Enfield bus garage operated by arriva
Ahh I see!
The w5 was my old school route to Highgate wood school
Oooh!
W7 will be getting BYD Enviro 400 City EV which will replace the Wright Electroliner EV.
Ooooh! Can’t wait to see those in action!
W3 used to be using Enviro 400's
Oooh!
Carrying bus scene right now
LOL
This inspires me to make a video at one point but riding every U prefix route 😁 anyways, nice vid Godwin
Edit: 35:21 THAT BEAUTY USED TO BE AT MY LOCAL GARAGE MONTHS AGO 🥲🥲🥹

Godwin i will let u know about the garage for the 192 cuz imma get it 2 school
Nice Video as always. Is it oaky to use this for my videos this idea its so smart I want do 'D' Prefix & 'W' Prefix
Thanks so much for watching! You can do so, please try to give credit to my channel though! - Thanks so much for watching!!
I drive past the w7 everyday (not doing buses atm) and i see pv on the side, but i thought w7 ran out of holloway🤷🏽♂️
It's BC the buses are for the 83 and I think the 297 will use them aswell

@@ialstlc665883 dont use them, they use vw and vwhs & and maybe the odd vmh
