Kickdown! | First Norwich Volvo B7RLE Wright Eclipse Urban 66977 (KX05 MHA)- Route 36

Once one of a pair of ex Leicester B7RLEs in Purple Line livery, 66977 is the sole survivor and usually stuck on busy 36As. On this day however, it was on the shorter 36 and getting an absolutely fantastic run to make up time- Not the loudest ZF but a really strong performer nonetheless!

Nice video

I love the turbo whistle on this one

[@Transport_Of_Norfolk]

It's quite something!

ZF sounds interesting to say the least, turbo seems to be loving life though 😂

[@Transport_Of_Norfolk]

Yeah, makes all kind of noises this one. Characterful to say the least! 😬

Sad to see she's now withdrawn.

Nice to see the gearbox is still in the same condition as it was at the start of the year. Great video though nonetheless!

Cheers! I actually filmed this in October last year, but it still sounds just about the same I think!
