Thank You, you're welcome

Broken down electric buses seem to a regular site in Dublin. It's amazing that the company I work for has 24 year old ALX400 bodied Volvos and yet they never give us any trouble yet its nearly always the newer buses I see with the hazards on and warning triangle out.

Nice video Peter! It will be good for the N279 and 279 bus routes to have electric buses

The stagecoach ones for route 86 only became fully allocated quite recently despite entering into service since the beginning of the year. Probably also the last ones using the now old streetdeck face-lift

Nice video Peter. Good that the ESs are out full time now

I love the sounds of the electric buses when they've stopped. Don't seem to be that many around London though. How many miles can it go on a single charge? The 307 is a fairly long route.

@BristolRE

Ай бұрын

Not sure about miles, but they can last about 16 hours if they start on 100% charge, then run in with about 6-8%

Why is the hazard lights on solid on some of the new busses that are parked in the garage and on herts way?

I've read about Arriva's transaction to the equity firm being completed. I guess it'll now be the case of different companies or equity firms bidding for the company?

The duty card has abbreviations I know a few but what is NBAR? And is that the electric bus noise ?

@BristolRE

Ай бұрын

NBAR is New Barnet. Because electric buses don't have an engine, and thus no engine sounds, they emit a noise at speeds below 15mph to warn blind people that a vehicle is close by

did you know route 279 is getting vision zero electroliners looking forward to riding driving them ?

@BristolRE

Ай бұрын

Not sure I like the look of them, prefer the look of our ones on the 307. Don't think there will be any differences in driving them, but yes, will be good to have a drive
