The two cummins engined buses from possil MB44 & 45 were pretty quick. When 44 had an overhaul it could accelerate up hills easily, but 45 always sounded knacked. All the possil metros should have been cummins powered, cause they had to run the 18 and climb up east kilbride rd. Some were so slow you could jog passed them on the way up...
Love the sounds of these legendary buses

omg either this bus was caning it at 50mph+ or very low geared, seem to accelerate quickly , made me think despite sounds they are Cummins engined.
