    I'm wondering, if all the diesel engines really got banned, would heavy commercial vehicles then have big petrol engines again like the inline-6 cylinder engine in the Green Goddess and the 6.5 litre inline-8 cylinder Rolls-Royce B81 Griffon engine, apart from all the petrol-electric hybrid and all electric drivetrains. A 6.6 litre 4-cylinder petrol engine built with the latest technology would have some very exciting and interesting dynamics.

    Video would have been improved by wind suppression device or feature enabling. Wind noise overrode the engine sound. Also longer time to view engine and look at interior while driving.

    Hi Malcolm, thanks for your comments which I agree with. I know that the sound quality is compromised by the wind noise and I plan to make further Charabus videos later this year (without wind noise) once it has completed its annual service which it is currently undergoing. I will also show interior shots while driving.

    I thought these were called "charabancs", which originated in French. It roughly means "carriage with benches".

    You are correct about the origin of the word charabancs which was a name given to open top busses. The Charabus is a hybrid carriage which can either operate as a fully enclosed bus or when the canvas roof is retracted and the side windows removed as a charabanc, a clever play on words.

    When the bus was manufactured, it only had a magneto to provide the power for the spark plugs. It does not have a dynamo or a battery so fitting an electric start was not feasible, especially as the hand-crank system works reasonably well.

    I am no expert on tyre technology, but certainly busses manufactured in the early 20’s were fitted with solid tyres. This may have been a cost based decision or that pneumatic tyres were not yet reliable enough to be fitted to heavy vehicles. However it is likely that pneumatic tyres will have later been fitted during the busses service life as a simple upgrade. Perhaps someone can shed more light on this matter?

    @@PPPE1957 I've looked it up. Makes sense! For car-tyres (and bicycle-tyres) of those days, no metal wires were used as a "frame" or "canvas" inside the rubber. Only woven fabric. So I suppose that those early inflatable tyres did not work on heavy loads. This is only changing in the 20ies, when a "metal-wire frame" became the norm.
