JNG724 Yep... good bus this is, and it's good having a driver that knows me and is willing to drive like this for the purpose of the video.
I love the sound of the Voith gearbox. This will make all Enviro 200's cry in envy!
That screaming gearbox!! I think this is the best Voith video on youtube right now, thanks very much for posting :)

Kieran's Bus Vids yep, it's good what you can get to do when you know a driver.
Absolutely marvellous! I wish our 2011 New Flyer Xcelsior’s had a Voith like that!!
Well, you are definitely right about the 'very loud' part of the title, although I would call it an understatement! Thank you for uploading.

North of Scotland Buses just watching this again, we were on it that night! Totally nailed it! Thanks for the video I don’t suppose we will ever have it running so well again! It’s been off the road now for over 2 months but hopefully it will be back soon

Donald Macarthur Yeah, I'm glad we did this that night. I still remember how insanely loud it was. Hopefully we'll get another chance to do it again at some point.

Aye it’s back on the road just now but it’s not as fast as it used to be I think it needs a proper driver for a while to loosen it up a bit 😄

This song represents going home from school
And here was I thinking my old Citroen's gearbox with worn bearings is noisy...
OMG 😍❤
Is it the normal speed for the video? I never heard a Voith crying, shouting like that lol!
Wow
This Will Make All VW LT’s Cry
No joke i saw this bus had airtime
From now on, i'm calling YN07 KGU *The UK's Loudest Bus* It's too loud and can wake everyone up at night

Imagine if it had no engine and gearbox cover.

Yes, there is only one here and it still see's service most weekdays. It will become a spare vehicle in October and will then become rarer in service though.
OMG what a racket... Do they drive without engine cover... I'm a bus driver but i don't understand WHY people want to sit above the engine.

For some reason some Voith gearboxes are really loud and others are whisper quiet. Noticed this across different fleets. Maybe it's just a maintenance thing (oil used and how often it's replaced?) but i could be wrong. This one however sounds like it's about to come apart. Never heard one so loud before
Sounds like an mmc
That has to be the loudest auto box on the planet and with huge slippage/ pause - shall I change gear? Yes!!!!!between gear changes. Take the box out put a manual- semi auto -? Pre select in it. A lot less noise. What was that farting?
Please tell me its not fixed

Mark Allan I agree about it sounding better with ZF however I must disagree about it sounding terrible. It's amazing in my opinion.
That sound from this bus is so terrible! In Israel, every Golden Dragon XML6125cc is not loud than this sound. Worst kickdown ever!
This drive is very uncomfortable Lots of noise You can hardly talk to each other The engine is much too weak The 4-speed Voith gearbox keeps dragging a long time between two positions Also because of the low power of I think at most 120 hp where 350 hp would have been much better Voith was already in the 60s with noisy gearboxes in the competition of the gearboxes for buses and they haven't improved one bit in those say 45 years The prototype was the 2-speed Voith Diwa 200 used in city buses and they continued with that until well into the 80s
