New to Bullock and Sons, Featherstone, and yup it is a Barnaby.

Went to my local town on the Leyland Tiger Bus , the look is unique and iconic, the sound is unforgettable, I was young I wish now I had took more time to appreciate such a well built machine . Many Memories

Nice old bus Fuzz, easy on the gears, double de clutch

My son is special needs and he really likes antique buses 🚌🚍🚎🚐 like that one he says if they painted it red it would look just like Bertie from the railway 🛤 series.

The PS/PD 1s had the rattley old ex tank engine. Getting a silent down change on a sliding mesh gearbox is just so satisfying, used to drive a Dennis F38 pump-escape with sliding mesh box. Great fun to drive!

Very well driven Fuzz . Would like to have seen Tim having a bash ! You can see the previous owner lavished many an hour and love into making this a lovely piece of automotive history ! I guess in real terms someone is going to drive away with a bargain ! Thanks

We inspected it a few years ago and the wooden frame is rotten, don't know if they restored it recently but 4/5 years ago it needed a lot of work.

I have seen docos of people heading off in similar buses for a day out dressed in their best suit even on the hottest days, handkerchiefs mopping the sweat. A real ocassion.

Nicest vehicle previewed up to now

@golden.lights.twinkle2329 2 года назад

Excellent little vehicles - until something goes wrong, then who are you going to take it to to get it fixed and where are they going to get spare parts? And where do you keep it? A great pity you did not show us the interior.

@johng.lidstone2236 3 года назад

Barnaby bodywork. Wise comment about not hurrying the old girl. Well driven if you've not driven one before.

what does the horn sound like

Fuzz, have you driven a Leyland National?

@petersmith4455 2 года назад

good video but you must double-de- clutch up and down the gears

@smogmonster1876 Год назад

Apparently not necessarily. IF you know what your doing and when to do it you can single clutch or even use no clutch at all. At least that’s what I’ve been told by a bus preservationist.

@davefrench3608 Год назад

@@smogmonster1876 bus drivers used to drive clutchless, it’s all about getting the revs right - a quick dying engine makes it so much easier.

@smogmonster1876 Год назад

@@davefrench3608 Yes. Indeed. Revs are key. I have driven a synchromesh clutch less but not a constant mesh. Tbf the synchromesh vehicle was a modern day car but principle is the same

@smogmonster1876 Год назад

@@davefrench3608 Ahh Thanks for your confirmation. And yes the chap I knew said it’s all in the revs. Revs are key. The synchromesh gearbox and even more so semi and fully automatic gearboxes take away a lot of the skill that was involved in bus driving yrs ago. Nowadays (altho I don’t necessarily agree with his statement) bus drivers today are just steering wheel attendants.
