    Their roaring engine sound is awesome, very nice to see their majestic movement. In India even today Ashok Leyland Buses and Lorys are very popular brand among fleet owners. Now a days we can not hear that phenomenal original engine sound, may be due to Hino series engines fitted in Ashok Leyland vehicles., it is

    So happy to see the legends alive. ! Wish the old British Leyland is alive and kicking though the legacy is still continuing in India by the name Ashok Leyland. !

      Thanks for making me feel really ancient: I was the District Manager when she was in service. In those days Nationals went through brake linings so fast on the Busway that we had a permanent night-shift on relining brakes.

    00:36 - Ah, the Alexander PS bodied B10M. Went like stink those things. Really easy to catch up on your schedule with. Apart from the one bus in my depot that had a 2 to 4 second delay between you pressing down on the accelerator pedal and the bus actually doing something. Made getting out onto busy round-a-bouts a challenge as you had to anticipate a gap and hope it was still there as the bus started to move! hahaha

    Strathtay Scottish always liked their blue and orange. Always staved off a takeover by Stagecoach. Sad to see Stagecoach eventually got their maulers on. Got rid of some great classic "Scottish" buses after that

    Hi Guy's my name is Mr C. T. Boxill-Harris I was wondering, why couldn't you find nice fresh shiny Leyland Titan B15s and Repaint them to a Grey Green Colour's just like the original Scania Grey Green which was in the East London bus route's such as 24, 125, 167, 168, 298, 173, 179, 313 and also the bus route 103, if you guys would like to find about 14 Leyland Titan B15's, please could you Repaint them in the Exact Grey Green Bus Colour's for us because it would be a Very Very Very Very Very Very Interesting Buses to see them Repainted to a Grey Green Colour's and I'am a Big Fan of all of the Leyland Titan B15's Please?

    Extended Bodies for Most of the Buses
    Much as I am not comfortable
    asking the depot why they stopped running the London Suburban Loud
    4-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Automatic Gearbox Gardner 6LX and Gardner
    6LXC Diesel Engine Olympian ECW’s on routes 30, 121, 230, 271, 349, N279
    And 158 why can’t we make the same make of the Loud 4-Speed Leyland
    Hydra cyclic Automatic Gearbox Gardner 6LX and Gardner 6LXC Diesel
    Engine Olympian ECW Buses but Modernise the insides of these Buses.
    Also, make it low floor up and down and also extend the middle body part
    of these vehicles a little bit more so there will be more space for the
    wheelchair users. By the way, if you could remake and Modernise these
    vehicles could they also make them into a Loud 4-Speed Leyland Hydra
    cyclic Automatic Gearbox Gardner 6LX and Gardner 6LXC Diesel Engine
    Olympian ECW Version’s that if it will be possible to Modernise the
    insides of these Loud 4-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Automatic Gearbox
    Gardner 6LX and Gardner 6LXC Diesel Engine Olympian ECW’s make it low
    floor up and down and also extend the middle body part of these vehicles
    a little bit more so there will be more space and even a London
    Suburban 4-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Automatic Gearbox Scania N230UD
    Enviro 400 MMCs and 4-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Automatic Gearbox
    Gardner 6LX Diesel engine Enviro 400 MMC’s and also extend the middle
    the body part of these vehicles a little bit more. Why couldn’t we have
    those London Suburban Buse's Pale red on the top roof Pale red again on
    the top middle Milk Chocolate brown on the middle Creamy white on the
    Bottom Middle and Milk Chocolate Brown again on the Bottom on most of
    those kinds of those Particular Double Decker Vehicles? Could you put
    the Loud 4-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Automatic Gearbox in the Scania
    N230UD Enviro 400 MMCs and also put the Loud 3-Speed Voith Diwa Gearbox
    in the Volvo TD102KF Engine East Lancs Olympus and also extend the
    the middle body part of these vehicles a little bit more and also turn
    most
    of them to a London Suburban Buses. By the way, could you also make the
    routes 349, 121, N279 and 271 into a London Suburban Buses and have a
    a mixture of a Loud 4-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Automatic Gearbox
    Scania
    N230UD Enviro 400 MMC and Loud 4-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Automatic
    Gearbox Gardner 6LX and Gardner 6LXC Diesel Engine Olympian ECW
    Versions. Could they also transfer the Arriva Bus Depots from Hackney to
    Stagecoach company so they can replace all the Arriva buses so that all
    of them can go to Birmingham and Leeds and they can be replaced by
    Stagecoach Loud 3-Speed Voith Diwa Gearbox Volvo TD102KF Engine East
    Lancs Olympus and also Extend the Middle body part of these Vehicles and
    that includes A Mixture of a Stagecoach Loud 3-Speed Voith Diwa Gearbox
    Volvo TD102KF, Gardner 6LXC and Gardner 6LXCT Engine Northern Counties
    Palatine One and that Includes a Loud 4-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic
    Automatic Gearbox Gardner 6LX Diesel engine Enviro 400 MMC’s and Loud
    4-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Automatic Gearbox Scania N230UD Enviro 400
    MMC Vehicles A Little Bit More? Can Arriva London Bus Company Replace
    Most of their Wight Buses so they can also transfer them to Birmingham
    and Also Manchester so they can be replaced by Loud 3-Speed ZF Ecomat
    Gearboxes Volvo D10A Engine East Lancs Olympus and also Extend the
    Middle body part of these Vehicles A Little Bit More Thank You Very Very
    Very Very Very Very Very Much. Oh by the way could the bus Factory
    Companies also Make More of Those Loud 4-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic
    Automatic Gearbox Gardner 6LX and Gardner 6LXC Diesel engine Olympian
    ECW Vehicles And that also includes Those Loud 4-Speed Leyland Hydra

    Scania Grey Green on the Bus Route 313 so they can Reuse them for Only
    Every 6 and a Half Months and also Reuse them on those Rail Replacement

    I dunno why they simply can't keep these on the roads/just simply swap out the diesel/petrol engines for an all electric or hydrogen engine instead🤔😩💭🤷‍♂️💡

    Yep, toughened glass windscreens that would go bang and make every one jump if hit by a stone chip..
    None of the Mk1 + Mk2 Leyland Nationals ever broke down on me whilst driving..
    Periodically the interiors were deep cleaned as the ceilings + filters were thick with nicotine..
    Not Nice, my drivers window was nearly always open to blow the fag smoke back wards into the saloon..
