    Well, it was nice to be featured in this video as I rarely speak/show my face but there were definitely some funny moments when filming this LOL! For example we both kept messing up but we managed to get on it.
    I hope to be featured again soon!

    Its a great form of transportation - quick and comfortable. Only issue is how uncomfortable it becomes when the bus is on a regular road, very bumpy and loud haha

    Once again great video Godwin! It was very nice to watch especially with you out of London and the bus way looks amazing it's like if it's a bus turning into a tram so as always keep up those fantastic videos and I cant wait for the next one

    When in Cambridge on a short weekend city break, I had the opportunity to check out these buses in Cambridge as they ran right next to the hotel I was staying in- it’s a very cool system, I must admit, and a very cool video 😎

      Thanks so much for watching! The intro I used a new mic which was VERY sensitive to say the least so that may appear louder than the rest of the video, except the intro the rest should be okay!

    23:40 so that'll be a Mellor Sigma 12, very rare and I believe these are the only route in the country that has them.

    Like your vids , good thing that you’re expanding your boundaries in transport . You should try Nottingham (in the midlands)

      @@GTransit route 1 is one of my favorites since it has more comfortable seats and the journey time is long (approx 1hr) and the 5 7 8 9 has a nice kick down on the mmc’s (ex-Allison I think) . Yutong routes : 11 , 30 , 39 , 40 ,41 ,42 and 50 are one of the best since there the only electric buses and have air-conditioning .

    The electric bus at the end is a mellor sigma run by whippet they do the u1 and u2 for Cambridge uni and they are special as there are only 9 of them made that length and shape and the bus fleet number was WG119.
    yellow and blue decker fleet number WD446 has definitely seen better days and also you have ether WG110 or WG111 at Huntington bus station.

    Its great to see people not Focusing london and other cities like Cambridge, If you do want to go See different transportation i’ve got to say the midlands or yorkshire are the best choices
    I’ve been to nottingham, leicester, derby nottingham and i must say there bus transportation is top quality they also provide announcements for bus stops for the next busses

      @GTransit  5 месяцев назад

      I agree with this! Yes London has an excellent transport network but it’s good to explore out of London as not a lot of creators do that, so it gives more diverse and different videos! What routes would you recommend in those areas or are all amazing? Thanks so much for watching!

    Another decent video mate, if you want to do more videos outside of London I’ve got a idea for you and that’s the Manchester Guided Busway that the Vantage routes run on, I think there’s the V1/V2/V3 & V4 the last time I checked so yeah there’s an idea for you if your interested in it

      Yes, B’ham’s experimental Tracline65 guided busway ran successfully from 1984-87, using specially adapted MCW Metrobuses running between the city centre and Short Heath. Deregulation and competitors who didn’t want to use guided buses killed it off. Duplicate stops were added beside the 600yd guideway and it was soon abandoned. Almost no trace of it remains today.
