London Buses at work in Oxford Street on 11th January 2013

[@leicestertravels4705]

One of the best times for London. A great mixture of new and old, they couldn’t have made the Routemasters documentary at a better time.

[@BristolRE]

Better than today, that's for sure!

[@richardchapman8690]

Interesting to look back and see the difference with companies, liveries, routes and vehicles.

[@BristolRE]

Indeed it is. How does this video play for you? It's very jerky for me, but it was fine when I uploaded it.

[@Diamondblade2008]

Actually cars (except minicabs and delivery vehicles) are banned from entering Oxford Street Mon-Fri during peak hours as far as I know. I am a bus driver myself and I have seen the necessary road signs.

[@uktransportgames]

Aaa yes, classic London I wish they kept all of these buses

[@BristolRE]

Yes, all the variety has gone now

[@raffiantosca8687]

Mhm its just these ugly new buses, on my street there used to be loads of Gemini 2's (My favorite) they changed them all into ugly routemaster's now

[@ShoaibKhan-bz5qm]

There were so many buses that used to serve Oxford street that don’t anymore - the 10 (scrapped), 23, 159, 73,between Oxford corcus and Marble Arch), 189, 13, 137

[@BristolRE]

Yes, and one day there may be none, as I believe they still want to pedestrianise Oxford Street

[@raffiantosca8687]

And now the 73 terminates there instead of Victoria

How times were different mann!
Everything went through Oxford st lol, miss these days, miss First group also.
One thing I always noticed, no go-ahead route seems to ever have gone down oxford street, the closest buses that go near are 12, 453 and 22 - and oh yh the 74 briefly comes on but turns off to go marylebone, does that count? Lol

[@BristolRE]

Happier Times

[@BristolRE]

Hi. They have two doors because the routes are very busy in places and this allows passengers to leave the bus whilst others are boarding helping to speed up the journey.

[@Londonbusenthusiast353]

Plaxton buses are nice but there rare to see in London

[@Sahan16a]

there is the congestion charging which prevents cars from driving in Oxford street

[@76ris28]

@Luca The bus companies have depots where buses are stored before starting a Deadrun, which is going towards the start of a route. And there are adverts on most buses, some buses have their whole outside with ads. The groups are: Go-Ahead London, Abellio, Arriva, London United, Metroline, Metrobus. I think I missed some

The are lot of companies of buses, but how do they work

[@liamhunter4529]

I do like it

[@danielmurphy3009]

Huh i live in dublin ireland and most of are buses have single doors
why do most london buses have two doors?
and do they use them on most routes

[@Marc-so2cd]

A lot of good old buses but sadly no more.

[@manueleserra8227]

GLI AUTOBUS ROSSI LONDINESI MI PIACCIONO TROPPO

[@BristolRE]

No, although it looks like it in this video!

[@juliesmith5567]

How does it feel when busses try to pull out in front of you to go first or a cycle tries to pledge its way to go the way Infront as when I sometimes hear the hoot

[@BristolRE]

If buses want to pull out most bus drivers will let each other go. Otherwise it's all part of the stress of driving in London

[@mohibj]

This will no longer be a thing with half of the street getting pedestrianised next year

[@CookieCft]

Why is it so laggy?

[@BristolRE]

It's awful, isn't it? It was recorded and uploaded in a strange format, (MTS), which even now still plays fine on my PC, and worked fine on here when uploaded. I think RUclips possibly doesn't like it.

Lagging because your camera too old

[@BristolRE]

No, it was a fairly new HD Panasonic camcorder - lagging was probably due to poor editing afterwards, guess I used the wrong settings afterwards
