  • Listen to that! What a beauty this one was, 485 was my favourite out of the Ex Brighton & Hove lot we had, this run started in Estover as my duty ended there and the quickest way back to the depot was via the Novorossik road and the A38, which made for a great run in this 3 speed animal! Throughout the video you can hear the turbo screaming away multiple times which I could hear from the front!
    Enjoy!

    Engine: 8.3L Cummins ISC (265 bhp varient) Euro 3

    Now this is what I call proper driving it’s nice to sit at the back when the driver is licking proper speed hitting the corners 😆 Tridents are excellent buses and are so much like MCW metrobuses

    Sounds much older than it is when it slows down. It will have been registered somewhere in Lancashire judging by it's number plate.

    I had NO IDEA these PK02s were 265bhp. Explains why they’re so fast, the ones I’ve been on certainly are!

    Used to get this one and a few others on the 12/12B a few years back! With the right driver they shifted! Though 487 is forever in my bad books. It had a phase of blowing Oil and Fuel lines in Bude!

      Haydon Beagley I’m not surprised really, these shouldn’t have ever gone on the 12/12B’s as they simply weren’t built for it :-(

    Best 3 speed trident I've seen tbh.. obviously prefer ZF tridents

    • @ThePlymouthRoadSurfer
      @ThePlymouthRoadSurfer  4 года назад

      Yeah I prefer the ZF’s too but this one was really impressive!

    3 speed Euro 3 Tridents are quite rare Cummins engines don;t work well with 3 speed Voith's but as this has the 265bhp engine instead of the 220bhp one it's not bad. Imagine how quick it would be with a 5 speed ZF. It would leave many cars standing.

      Euro III power outputs were 225 or 260bhp. Connex's Tridents for route 157, 211 and 344 were 260bhp on 5 speed ZF.

    Nice video! This sounds amazing!!! 😍
    Could you tell me the whereabouts of the other ex Brighton Tridents at Plymouth please? I presume they’re no longer in fleet but don’t know what’s happened to them

    How do you find out the full vehicle specs?

    • @ThePlymouthRoadSurfer
      @ThePlymouthRoadSurfer  2 года назад +3

      Knowledge is power ;-) Nah I just research and then check the spec plates on the engine and gearboxes of each type of bus in our fleet :-)

      TheIrish RoadSurfer New to Brighton & Hove as 870. In April 2001?!? That must be a mistake, surely they meant 2002?
      Well anyway, that’s what BLOTW says and I did type in the original reg 485 was new as www.buslistsontheweb.co.uk
