Finally I got to drive a ZF Ecomat Euro 4 Enviro 400, one of my top bucket list buses to drive, and boy did she not disappoint...
Having been purchased from GAL with a defective engine for peanuts, Plymouth City Bus acquired this vehicle and rebuilt the engine to the standard she is in now, and that standard is known as... oh what's it called again?... Oh yeah... F*CKING FAST!
Specs for the geeks:
Chassis: Enviro 400 Dennis Trident
Engine: 6.7L 6 cylinder Euro 4 Cummins ISB
Gearbox: 5 Speed ZF Ecomat (With kickdown and "Topodyn")
Body: ADL Enviro 400
Registration: LX56 EUB
Fleet number: 477
Status: In service

Don't I miss these beasts....
Also Hong Kong have this Alexander Dennis Enviro 400 Bus too for example CTB Bus 7000-7059 Gearbox is ZF and NWFB Bus 3800-3859 Gearbox is Voith,Good Job this Bus Driver can do some Kickdown sound 💪🏽👍🏽
Loved the way this video was edited! Absolutely brilliant
Thank you :-)
Fantastic video! Nicely done mate!
Thanks dude! :-)
Sounds so good
What a beast!
This bus uses the same engine as a Dodge/Ram truck
Correct, 6.7L Cummins ISB :-)
The amount of power she generates....... its a shame the only working Adl E400 Trident Are ex metroline Te's currently owned by Redline..... and they are horrendous 😢.
Brilliant And fast kickdown from Ex GAL Dennis Trident
Awesome stuff!! would love to get a spin on one of these if I ever got the chance!
Great kickdown
Cheers my dude! :-)
@@ThePlymouthRoadSurfer no problem
Great
Thxs
Phwoar!!! Forgot you had this tbh. Need to try and sort a Plymouth day out for the new year!!
Yes come on down! :-)
Nice video new subscriber here :)
Thanks Will! Welcome to my channel :-)
Good buses
Great video.☺️
Edit: This bus use to be at Bexleyheath Bus Garage and use to run on the route 486. I miss this bus in London.
Sounds a lot healthier now!
Indeed she does!
@Stratford's Buses She’s definitely not the quickest, doesn’t touch the likes of E47 but she’s decent enough.
Yeah Reg’s video of it clearly demonstrates it’s amazing performance! :-)
Oh awesome!!
Do you prefer voith or zf e400?
ZF, always.
My least favourite of the batch, but you make any bus good... amazing power from the girl
Ahh not a fan of the ZF Ecomat E400’s then?
@@ThePlymouthRoadSurfer I don't mind, but this one in particular is very unlucky with me, always having faults at PCB and breaking down on the 85 to Newquay
Oh I see, she’s currently at the Milehouse depot in Plymouth getting some more tlc before returning to service :-)
@@ThePlymouthRoadSurfer yeah, about time really.
Could do with a 6th gear but i'm guessing the 6 Speed ZF doesn't fit.
I 100% agree with you here, I’m not sure why Trident’s never got the 6 speed, maybe you’re right, maybe they just couldn’t fit! These would be perfect with the 6HP ZF’s.
@@ThePlymouthRoadSurfer If Volvo managed to fit a 6 speed ZF in Eclipse Gemini's then i didn't see why ADL couldn't. The B7TL's engine is bigger too.
@@jaggass EXACTLY! That’s what I was thinking too, there must be some sort of reason surely!
@@ThePlymouthRoadSurfer It turns out ADL did so E400 6 speed ZF's. London had a few 58 plate ones.
@@jaggass ZF Ecolife or ZF Ecomat? Got a video of one?
remove the noisy fan
