Episode 21: There Goes a Bus (2002)

In which Bus Driver Dave learns about buses.

The show opens with archive footage of school buses:

We're introduced to North County Transit District 1122, a New Flyer D40LF new in 2000, including a demonstration of the bike rack on the front of the bus, also a view of the Cummins engine:


This SVMC replica trolleybus is operated by Old Town Trolley of San Diego. Note the restricted vision through the front windscreen:


In Seattle we see King County 3226, a 1996 Gillig Phantom:

It's followed by the same agency's 4100, also a Gillig Phantom, but the first of a batch of the trolleybus variant, new in 1990:

More King County trolleys, these are AMG Metropolitans:

King County 2455 is a 1998 New Flyer D60 artic, and there are views inside:


2326 is another from the same batch:

4006 is a MAN SGT-310 trolleybus:

Attention switches to Greyhound, and their 6517, a 1998 MCI 102-DL3:

Seal Tours operate this amphibian:


There's a brief detour into a Prevost La Mirage RV:

This double-decker with British Bus Company has retained its roof and hasn't had a (UK) offside door fitted. After discussion on Facebook, it appears to be former Greater Glasgow PTE LA1027 (MDS690P), a 1976 Leyland Atlantean AN68A/1R with Alexander body ) (thank you Phil Groocock, Duane Fryer, Ewan Scotland, Colin Devine):

A second British Bus 'decker, this time an open-topper; this I believe is former Ipswich 24 (SDX24R), a 1977 Leyland Atlantean AN68A/1R with Roe body:


The footage isn't clear enough to prove this, but SDX24R was apparently sold with the registration plate 'FUS153L' on the back….

There's some fun washing this International schoolie with an AmTran RE body:

…and there's an assortment of other Internationals:
