  • Oooow...eindelijk weet ik hoe het heet!! Tering...wat heb ik daar lang over gedaan. :P In welk jaar is deze serie uitgezonden? Ik weet nog dat hier als kind graag naar keek.

  • There's a great big bus way up in the sky And everyone said it would never never fly With a poop poop chugga chugga bing a bang bing This is a song that we always sing Think about hanging on walibis and snakes Open the steam bow let go the brakes Chuggie chuggie claddie claddie chug chug chug Off we go with our funny old bus Over the hill and over the dale We're on a big quest that must not fail We're finding a way to make the air clean It's all to do with very hot steam
  • Thank you for the lyrics, fdewit

  • Λέγαν όλοι τους πως δέν θα πετάει και ο κοπος μας λέει χαμένος θε θα πάει,

  • Somebody knows if this show was somewhat related with "Secret Valley"?. I don't know why I used to mix them both in my head. I know both are australian, but, some other relation beyond this?

  • Comment removed

  • Yep this was a spin off of Secret Valley.

  • There was a minor link. This one came after from memoery. There was some cross over of cast etc in a cpl of episodes.

  • Wow. All I could remember of this was the tune and lyrics that I thought went something like "theres a great big bus right up in the sky and nobody would be believe it could fly" put big bus and australian kids into google and here I am reliving a half forgotten memory from when I was 8! Hurrah for the internet!

    This is a show that needs to be released on DVD

  • i remember this from years ago. i had a recording of the first 2 episodes. where the first made the zeppelin. i always thought the bloke who played count sator look remarkably like the actor Christifer Lee.

  • i remembered this show but for the life of me couldnt remember the name. thanks to a little digging on google i found this. such a cute show!

  • Thank you so much for posting this. I haven't heard that theme tune for 20 years, but it's been in my head constantly! Brilliant show!

  • Thank you for uploading this! The theme song stayed in my head for two decades and all of a sudden I was desperately searching for the clip.

  • ¿Anyone have a video or an mp3 about the serie in english,please?

  • I miss this TV series so much. It was for me very special. A flying bus and I wanted to join them.

    There has to come a movie from this series.

  • teleio.prepei na pane 18 xronia apo tote etsi;

  • näyttää ihan joltain hullulta lahkolta. hahaha xD

  • O my God been trying to remember this intro for ages. Totally forgot the nameof the series, remembered that it had an intro that stuck in my head everytime I watched it. Childhood memory. Totally loved this series.

  • oh my god. thank you for this. i've been looking to know what was this show i vaguely remembered as a kid. I had totally forgot about the intro until now. I KNEW it was australian. It was shown here in quebec, canada (hence we got the dubbed in france version) in the 80's, i could not find ANYONE who could tell me what this show was or even remembered it. Until I typed red flying bus in google. I also had forgot i had a mild crush on the girl (the first one that sings) until now

  • That girl is Justine Clarke and she also played a character called Roo in Home and Away and does kids shows. Checkout Justine Clarke-I like to sing- to see where shes at now. I grew up in Aus and was also smitten by her but she seems to have some junk in the trunk in the new vid. Enjoy!

  • @DUSTINDUSTRIES

    damn you RUINED my childhood why!

  • my favourate !!! hi from greece

  • Τέλειο, έτσι;

  • SUPER!! i loved that tv show!!! :)

  • i can never forget this series, would'nt miss it for the world when i was a kid, i remember Justine Clark, i really had the hots for her and was pleased to see her pop up in Home and Away, i think she played 'Roo' and she was sooo hot then!!!! If i have kids i'll make sure they get to see this too.....

  • PUT A PERIOD IN THERE MAN! Damn run on sentences.

  • I remember this tv series when I was a kid, it use to be on channel 9 in the mid 80s. Notice the first girl singing at the start, thats Justine Clarke who was in Home and Away.

  • OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I used to watch it everydays! that brings me soooooooooo far lol!

    Love hearing that again T4P

  • I seem to remember that the young girl in the first scene *popping up and moving her head* was somehow related to the old man driving the bus. I believe she was either his niece or his granddaughter. This was so great watching, and I agree with the people that say that this is much better than all the blood, gore and violence that kids are watching these days.

    Youthful sentiment ^_^

  • Ahh, I've been looking for this. Do I remember wrong, but was there a big castle(with creepy music) where the bad guys were?

  • Something else that MUST be released on DVD. hehe! I expounded the virtues of this program on live radio about 21 years ago when the radio one roadshow came to town. I'd love to see full episodes of this again if you have them!

  • Omg, I love hearing that again!

    Thanks!

    (Duurde fucking lang voor ik het gevonden had XD)

  • hadde mijn woorden kenne weze :P

  • Aussie's version of a Sid and Marty Krofft style kid show.

  • For some reason this tune just popped back in my head about a month ago. It took me ages to remember where it come from! Thank you for posting this vid, so many great memories from my childhood. Has any one got any episodes they can post?

  • ke recuerdos

  • Magnificent. I'd been humming this tune subconciously for twenty years. Great memories; Sunday mornings was it? Can't quite remember.

  • Almost bringing tears to my eyes. memories of my childhood in Riverwood circa 1985

  • Anyone got any episodes they can put up?

  • And everybody knows how to wave their arms on the boom boom etc..

  • Old memories..

    Great serie!

  • I'm getting old. I really liked the song when I was young. This is so much better than what you see these days!!

  • 1984 gang! I betcha :)

  • The show dates back to the mid 1980's 1986 is its IMDB listed year but I remeber it before then I'm sure.

  • How old is this song?

  • Wasn't this that show on Saturday mornings where they had to find golden salamanders?

  • I like very much, it makes me remembering when I was a young boy... but I'd like to learn the song... Can anybody post it?

  • The posting is due to I'm Spanish.

  • Thanks a lot!! Loved this theme song, never understood the show... I was too small to follow it! But thanks for posting this... brought back lovely memories!

  • Lol, it could have been me saying that, I always saw it because i loved the intro, hehe

  • :-) The intro still brings a smile to my face so an MP3 of it would've been good enough... but honestly, I found one of the girls on the show very cute... I don't remember which one any more but nice to 'see' the intro after such a looong time!

  • haha yea me too. I was so in love wih Justine Clarke lol

  • I forgot this one!!Very nice to see it again!!!

  • Indeed, me too !!

  • Awesome, i loved this show.
