Although it wasn't an RR bus, I recently got on one in Thamesmead, travelled about 100 yard and then we came to a police block due to an acciden on the OTHER half of the dual carriage way. The bus driver just told us to get and walk as he wasn't going anywhere!
Try SWR ones where coach drivers don’t know what the hell there doing or you get some that cheat and use a sat nav and then what happens RRP strikes a low bridge and yes it has happened before and probably will happen again
I do emergency rail replacement on the other side of the globe (Sydney, Australia). We are often summoned at the drop of a hat with no written instructions to an area we may not know well. Sadly, some drivers stuff up..
I can't imagine how hard it might be for drivers to drive a route they do not know without any instructions. How do you find driving rail replacement buses in Australia?
@@jtransportbuses Planned Rail Replacement work gets allocated to the company & driver's pick it up if they feel comfortable doing it. All the Route operators (CDC, Transit Systems, TJH, Busways, U-go Mobility, KDNB) get first pick. Runs are usually allocated to the company with a depot nearby, if possible. Once these companies are fully booked, planned rail is dished out to the subcontractors by either Punchbowl or Rover. Although small firms sometimes show up, Kinetic, NSBC, Kingstar, Cumberland Coaches, Shire Bus Service, Punchbowl, SBG & Lithgow Buslines tend to get a lot of the work. These firms all have at least a few low floor buses but provide coaches when all the low floors are allocated. Buses must have a capacity of not less than 45 & an age of not less than 25. Only the more competent drivers will do all stations runs & standby as it requires a greater skill. I am one of these drivers. On Emergency Rail, things kind of work on a "s--- s--- s---" basis, when the trains have literally just stopped moving. TMC rings OCC for each company & asks for some buses ASAP. If the work is for say tomorrow morning we get time to read up our lefts & rights (which get emailed through to us) but other times it's just "get there ASAP and do your best". Sometimes we use our local area knowledge, other times we follow routes we use for planned rail replacement, other times we'll get our passengers to direct us, who sometimes use Google Maps themselves. At least, this how it is done in Sydney.
Nahhh the fact that all of this happened in one visual is insane 🤣🤣. I'm genuinely shocked that the bus didn't receive any damage at all. But nevertheless, W visual bro (even tho u find this one an L which is understandable)
I find bus diversions on a double decker fun as you get a change of scenery from a nice high perspective. It helps of course if the driver knows where they’re going which thankfully they often do around where I live (less complex road network)
Wow that was one heck of a wild ride 🤣 Especially travelling through here very day when things are running normally it's genuinely crazy to watch some of the things this driver attempted. 🤣
That’s all the assiant worker around Pinner… but, around Kenton Sainsbury’s it’s all the driver.. 6’6 2.0M he went past, im surprised that AD bus can still be on rail replacements as SW7 did PL5😂

Metrobus route 411 in the Caterham area has narrow roads and can be a pain trust me this RRP isn’t the first as Metrobus 411 goes down Country lanes with tight bends
[BUS CRASH] seems a little melodramatic, since there appears to be no visible damage. Weren't the drivers notified by radio of the diversion due to the accident, though? There seemed to be a TfL van where traffic was diverted, was there no one telling them where to go?
Would love to have ridden a decker around the Pinner diversion. By the way double deck buses run along much narrower roads than this all over the country (Cornwall for example), but in TfL land the routes (313, 626 etc) from Dame Alice Owen's School at Potters Bar run along probably the narrowest Lane TfL deckers serve, albeit it is only a one way road (worth a video). Incidentally Draycott Avenue used to be the proper rail replacement route until that width restriction was introduced. Wonder what 114 and 183 were doing with the road closed ?
Yeah True, some DD routes pass through much narrower roads like the U3 for example. I would like to try out the 313 & the 626 one day. I never knew that Draycott Avenue used to be a RR route, the width restriction ruined the reliability to be fair. - Thanks for the info & recommendation! I think they should expand it a bit and create like a bus only path for buses to pass through alongside a new bus route! The 114 & 183 now pass through Wealdstone, Christchurch Avenue & down Kenton Lane in a diversion.

1. Typical British Weather!!!!! It’s summer right now & it’s raining a lot, even when the weather says low chance of rain. 2. 2:40 I swear there’s almost always some issue whether it’s a car or a burst water main on Kenton Road. 3. I’m sorry how on earth did the driver think it was a good idea to go through that with restriction & that diversion in Pinner as well…., it’s like he’s trying to damage the bus.
Brings back fun memories of Canterbury Buses on Roblox where I would drive over roundabouts instead of going around. Even then I was more capable of getting to my destination than this person
This was the most weirdest yet entertaining bus video I’ve ever watched and it made me not tired since it’s 12 rn
Thank You Very Much lol!
wow me too
HRs jaw would drop when they see this 😂😂
Rail Replacement buses are a different breed of transport 💀
Yeah lol 😂
you know the journey is gonna go wrong when the driver needs a assistant 💀
Yes lol
there was one time I was on the 195 route going back home from school, took the driver two hours to get to a short destination including a short crash
Although it wasn't an RR bus, I recently got on one in Thamesmead, travelled about 100 yard and then we came to a police block due to an acciden on the OTHER half of the dual carriage way. The bus driver just told us to get and walk as he wasn't going anywhere!

Yeah 😂!
AD drivers are a different breed
They are lol!
This bus driver needs to be trained to take passenger safety into account more
Yes, very true!
Agreed
This sort of thing happens on rail replacement buses every weekend. The buses go off route, get lost and frequently have accidents.

On Saturday 13th to Sunday 14th July 2024, the Metropolitan Line was suspended between Northwood Station and Baker Street. Also, the Jubilee Line was suspended from Stanmore to Baker Street at the same time. TFL decided to roll out 4 replacement bus routes to cover up for the mess:
JL1 - Stanmore - Stonebridge Park
JL2 - Wembley Park to Finchley Road
ML1 - Harrow on The Hill to Stonebridge Park
ML2 - Northwood to Wembley Park (which I did do early in the morning).
The experience was extremely terrible. The video will speak for itself. It's like something off a Roblox bus game...
