Britains Got Talent, but Wales has got the best part of it.... Knowledge, performance, humour, outtakes and Tim!!

Bless this young man's heart! He is not a public speaker, but he has skills and experience he is willing to share.

I really enjoy watching these videos, those buses are so basic and mechanical but built to last 💪🏻 it’s a real shame things aren’t built the same anymore. Keep up the good work everyone 👍🏻

Keeping the nations history and heritage alive. Cannot thank you fellas enough, your diligence is awesome to watch. I`m not mechanically minded but i love watching your feeds, it just feels so enjoyable to me. So keep up the good work you magnificent people.

I welded a bolt on a large ball bearing to use for a hole punch when making gaskets, cleaner cut than a hammer. Making gaskets is a dying art.

Brilliant video again boys,tim certainly takes a awful lot of pride in his work nice to see these day's.

Great to see such engineering craftsmanship in action.

I'm glad you've got enough Whitworth spanners and sockets now! 🙂 Also pleased to see that absolutely nothing went wrong during filming! 🤣

Life is a crack up when watching you pair at work. Then at the end that odd little man creeps in.

I like the way you guys crack on with these jobs on these buses putting them back into working order

Another good one boys.... I just love watching other people work !! ...... but....good progress being made, well done.

I find it amazing how Tim talks without barely moving his mouth 🤣 He's not only great on the spanners but a ventriloquist aswell 😂

it's not nice to make personal remarks about others. watch your tongue.

Probably the best channel on KZread.

Brilliant video as usual guys . Tim is a legend on the spanner’s 🔧

Good working relationship between you all, most amusing too.

You fella’s are great, keep up the good work and keep the outtakes and goof ups coming, they are hilarious.

when making gaskets easest way to do the bolt holes is a dome nut on a bolt place dome ocer bolt hole and tap bolt with a hammer makes a nice smooth hole , the way we did it on my apprenticeship back in the early 70s

love the videos really good watching on these rainy days

Been watching your vids. Used to drive your open top rm when it was with western greyhound.

Love this channel. Keep up the great work guys

Love these videos, Travelled to school every day on RT buses (routes 228 and 21) and I still prefer them to RMs.

Brilliant thank you for posting these videos

Another interesting episode concerning the RT bus. You have bags of patience to sort out these intricate parts. Many thanks, gents.

Nice work guys, love seeing old parts live on again 😎👍

A little tip when making gaskets... Use a ball bearing when cutting the holes out... one tap with the hammer and there done.. Great update fellas..

I've drawn crude diagrams to guide me on reassembly without which, I'd have been lost. I rebuilt a carburettor by listing each step of disassembly in detail.

Soft Jaws (leather)in the vice for brass items

Wonderful Video as ever, mind I fancy Tim would be well advised to be wearing safety Glasses when using a Wire Wheel Brush, suspect he forgot.

Another cracking video lads, you make it all very human. 👍

Another quality video👍🏻

Just brilliant guys 🇬🇧👍🇬🇧👍🇬🇧👍

I’ve been looking forward to seeing this video for ages. Great work as always!

Great video love your RM in the fleet with the 80s LT livery takes me back to a boy in Ilford seeing the 25s coming out of Hainault Street on their way to Victoria good work on the RT would love to see the engine re built and back in and running

Keep up the great work Lads, always look forward to your video's.

When I finally left the bus industry in 2004, I took all my old RM/RT tools with me. (Ended up giving them away) I also had an RT gearbox 'Bucket' that fitted inside the Wilson pre-select gearbox. I should think that those gearbox buckets, are like 'hens teeth' today. Hopefully Tim will be able to source one as a backup spare. Should you break a gearbox bucket on the road, it's definitely a tow job, unless you have one to hand. Great film as always lads cheers Jonnie.👍

@8:35 safety glasses young man! You only have 2 eyes!

Well said, I was cringing the whole time! What's going to happen only has to happen once.

Brilliant video

Love watching these videos, you guys are much better engineers than I am but watching you make the holes in the gaskets is painful, try using a ball bearing instead, it normally cut through first hit.

i rely like your videos and love the out takes at the end keep going

amzing videos boys can i see more videos

That is awesome viewers donated Whitworth tools, not a good time having to fix something without the proper tools. And I'm not trying to be Mr health and safety but PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE wear safety glasses, I had a shock absorber come apart and blast hydraulic oil in my face, that stuff burns like hell, I had to feel my way to a wash basin to flush my eyes, thankfully it didn't damage my eyes, working alone and having to remember where the basin is and feel your way while your eyes are on fire is frightening, you only have two eyes.

If the pot was from before the introduction of the BR logo, then it may just have the BR stamp on the bottom.

Wouldn't like a slap of the young lad he is a big boy

There is this fantastic new technology that will ensure you put things back together the way they came apart. It is called a camera! 😂

Another great video, please be careful when using a wire wheel on old gaskets, they may contain asbestos

hi there, great work as usual, used to go on the route 105 in 1969,picking it up in Perivale and going to greenford, then a 93 rt to the AEC wks,

I've travelled many miles sitting in the back of one of these buses and we took them for granted then, except I always liked the sound of the engines on tickover. One thing I always wanted to do was have a go on the conductor's ticket machine but once again, I think it was about the sound they made when the ticket was cranked out. I remember riding on London Transport's double decker trolley buses too and it just occurred to me, with modern lithium batteries, couldn't we ride those around again with a box of batteries in the back? Has anybody done this?

That’s right BR(M) is British Rail Midland

Cheers boys, another good one. Was the inside of the Air Receiver rust free?.

Did you ever paint the wooden cross beam?

Might be a chamber pot lol

Do original workshop manuals exist? (not Haynes!!!!!)

Out of interest team, what do you all do in-between your videos please?.

Stopping is so overrated. Lol 😆 🤣 😂 hammer down and High gear

Is that a waterborne paint? That looks like a pretty poor face mask if you are using a two-part epoxy or similar.

Get a shave Dave!
