Buses sometimes suffer from hidden problems like rusted out, or cracked frame, engines, axles, suspension, transmissions wear out. Anyway they still might be worth some money either in parts, or they can be sold to places where workforce is cheaper and after repairs they may be used for next few years, so shredding working busses isn't best thing possible to do...
If you guys think this is bad come to Columbus, Ohio. We are scrapping perfect good running buses. Instead of auctioning buses as we usually do, we are sending 2001 and 2003 New Flyers to the be shredded due to us getting federal money to help purchase them and each bus has less than 550,000mi. I know some of the supervisors, drivers and mechanics who all say they are disgusted and charter companies are ticked. This is really dumb since it will not allow small charter businesses like a charter/party bus company to grow or allow someone to come into business unless they buy a terrible school bus. All of these buses are all driven over an hour away to the scrap yard. All of them have had recent engine and transmission rebuilds as well and are kept up so well ,they are going out with no rust on the body and I have been under several which probably have another 10-12 years on the frame. We actually are sending buses to be scrapped for no reason and wasting money.
andrew mockler In the U.S., 400,000 miles is considered past due. In the old days here, some buses ran for more than 20 years and over 1 million miles. Now they are killing buses at 12 years old.
13:53 That is why there are no N113s preserved. The engine (and I presume transmission) was destroyed and there are none available for spare parts, there is a preserved Leyland Olympian I know of that is owned by a friend of mine that could have probably done with the gearbox ECU off the 4HP500 but they have paid quite a bit for a replacement one. Had either of the last two double deckers that went up on EBay been bought by someone wanting to restore them they would be stuck for parts since there aren't around, which is probably why the majority of the Leyland Olympians that are preserved are Cummins since there are a lot more parts available for older Cummins, but then any 80s & 90s heritage bus gathering would just be a bunch of Cummins L10s coupled to ZF 4HP maybe with the occasional Voith D851.
No wonder we could see the beofre and after of 2410 (before, because of the photos, and after, the bus being scrapped). Thanks for sharing, this bus is another farewell along with the DAB Citybus.
hollands old Daf busses still run in afrika , funny when you go there and see a bus with Utrecht on it or my old hoem town line 51 with numer 3845 xD this bus could easy be reused. but i guess that cost to much to get them there. vs scrapping them
Could have been a Futher Mucking great camper van with room for two offroad bikes in the back and a music rehearsal room, Maybe a little library as well. And compared with the prise of a house with annoying neighbors the ultimate freedom.
I understand this destruction if the bus has really come to the end of its life. It's just that it doesn't seem to be - many cities in east could have use of these and considering the environment, a DSC11 is almost like Euro 6 compared to old buses built in the former Soviet Union.
rodstartube Me too. There's so many ways to utilize old buses... In fact, most of them are obsolete, but crush them is just a way to create a lot of useless garbage. Even if the parts don't worth a cent, they could be dismantled. It's easier to recycle the materials this way - and easier to clean up the mess, too.
Paulo Vasconcelos No not any more. I was in the same thought to be recycled as parts but nowadays cost less to produce new part than to pay workers to dismantle the parts from a withdrawn vehicle.
+rodstartube All useful parts have been removed and it is a very quick job (im pretty certain in most cases it takes 35 minutes) and lets you get out all your energy in one massive rage of destroying an old bus :)
+TheTrainSimFan No, since 2013 i have learned much... Scania chassi, engine, etc, and built by Lahti. Just like the VEST V10/V25 on Scania L94. This is how the N113 looks without the Lahti build. home.online.no/~wiik/838stor.gif
well, as long the bus get recycled into something new, which i think is the whole point with the scraping work, i guess its okay. It indeed has valuable metals and such that can be used, instead of just sitting around and getting old and rusty.
Only cities need city busses,almost no private persons would ever buy a city bus because they're not practical for private use. Too bad the old Volvo busses were also taken out of service from the city, even though they were built to last. I really WOULD like to convince them, but the 12-year old limit is political regulation and that is as far away from clever arguments as you can get. Since they are not a private company, they can just spend almost unlimited tax money on the newest fancy stuff
I can't wait till this happens to Sacramento Regional Transit's 2003 Orion VII CNGs which are currently retiring from the fleet. They are the worst buses I've ever rode in history since moving to Sacramento from Atlanta two years ago. I've rode on a few crappy buses back in Atlanta but they were even that bad compared to Sacramento's junk buses
es increible como buses en buen estado se destruyen para generar la fabricacion de nuevos y poder vender otra y otra vez// esos buses funcionan perfectamente y pueden ser donados a otros paises............. pero a la industria no le conviene// un atentado a la inteligencia !!!!!
That's your tax dollars hard at work...The bus company already is a losing proposition for the city's. The price people pay will not even pay for the fuel. But what do I know.
15 years is too young to be scrapped. On Maderia island, Portugal, i saw lots of 30 or more year old Volvo busses running like a dream

I LOVED THAT BUS...AND LOOK WHAT U VE DONE

Yeah seeing this always pisses me off. Especially when they are perfectly running.
you get 20 or so years in dublin bus before they are sold to other companies in ireland or the uk or scrapped, 550,000miles is nothing
andrew mockler In the U.S., 400,000 miles is considered past due. In the old days here, some buses ran for more than 20 years and over 1 million miles. Now they are killing buses at 12 years old.
I know what you mean. We have trams here, which are 60 years old and still in use.
Prussian84 That's awesome.
13:53 That is why there are no N113s preserved.

what i ment was take the parts of at the scarp yard.
here in the uk they perserive the old buses we have buses in the uk from 1950s and up
46 seconds into the video; and that excavator has already made light work of that old bus!
14:31 that bus: shit, I need to go away
In India, a bus of this condition would have run another 60 years for sure.
+octolibra
Nope, because it's full of computerized shit, so in india this bus wouldn't last a month.
to right
@@3DPeter no it's too old so it would last

what a waste why no take parts off before crushing.
those buses were good.
and why that can't get recycled?
It does get recycled, look at the big pile, that is all sorted into recyclable/non recyclable material, the aluminium & steel will end up melted down
Yes it's true that city busses have a very hard life and they move millions of km over their lifetime
Compared to that old GMC bus in that other video, this thing came apart like nothing
Lots of spare parts gone to waste.
+A gm (snowman) everything goes into the shreader, being at this sigth tons of spare parts is "wasted". this is a recycle factory.
would be nice if the sparepart in good condition was remove first.
So people dislike this because they feel sorry for an old bus? It was scrapped for a reason.
thats true but it would be a shame if at least one of this type of bus was not preserved .
At least take the engine out though since they are what makes the bus run in the first place
for what reason EV dominance ? for greta's sake ?
RIP Bus:(

Thx danish politicians for using our resources so wisely.
Don't break lt up first bus will want to use it

this bus must be euro 3
Has driver survived?
lol
Is this a Caterpillar VHS-60 ?
Why didn't you make a nice driving home from it? Would be a sick creation
hvad koster sådan en udtjent bus, hvis man skal købe den?
why not remove the seats and plastic tyres first what a struggle
So satisfying
there goes a place to live
I think this is an inefficient method

Damn....what a powerful scissor :))
sådan er det når an er en slidt bus så bliver man bare til skrot til noget ny bus måske
Ikke i rute "Not in Route" det må man nok sige...
Bus S85
Most of todays busses are junk without any charm or class at all
Que rápido destruyó el autobús, parece que estaba hecho de papel aluminio.
Love watching this kind of stuff
13:55 and the steering wheel is still intact...
Roskilde?
Hvis du åbner dine øjn lidt mere kan du se der står hvilken bus og hvor det er... København
2:30 This has escalated quickly
I think it is the best job
noooo this was a great scania
Good operator
poor bus
Esse não chega e stressado em casa.
Noo there goes finnish made bus ;(
Its Swedish made...
When its Scania, i dont think so...
+TheTrainSimFan No, since 2013 i have learned much... Scania chassi, engine, etc, and built by Lahti. Just like the VEST V10/V25 on Scania L94. This is how the N113 looks without the Lahti build. home.online.no/~wiik/838stor.gif
***** have not said this is a Carrus K204
Oh ok :-)
cool job :)
Snøft.. Har selv kørt den vogn...
ломать не строить у нас бы в России этот автобус лет 10 прослужил!
Уже нет. Препоны против.
Awesome ten foot death tweezers.
У нас бы такой еще лет 10 ходил бы
haha... i imagine a hungry duck
I would easily pay money to get my hands on an old city bus...
BADASS MAN BADASS
у нас бы такой автобус ещё лет 20 проездил
Согласен :)
yarik3950 какие 20? Вы чего?! У нас бы он проездил ещё лет цать, потом с него снимали бы всё для ремонта старых или новых автобусов
yes
they are destroying a windsheld wiper
well, as long the bus get recycled into something new, which i think is the whole point with the scraping work, i guess its okay. It indeed has valuable metals and such that can be used, instead of just sitting around and getting old and rusty.
nope old is better than new
Maybe if you flip it over first
Monk would cry if he sees this...
