Sorry to spoil the fun from some of you guys but i think this is the worst intro that i have see in my whole life,iknow for some of you that is cute but for me it isn't! Still its something from the past and i can be forgiving when i talk about it so i can say that it is something nostalgic to remember our chilhoods.BOOM BOOM o my god its hapening again
this whas fucking awsomeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee i hate my older self now. i want back to my youth alot more fun.
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
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?
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!
Jeej! Eindelijk gevonden! Ik heb al zo lang gevraagd of iemand deze serie kende, en niemand wist waar ik t over had, met mn boem boem tjoeke tjoeke! Echt geweldig!
jemig, ik heb het zo vaak met leeftijdsgenoten over deze serie gehad. niemand wist wat ik bedoelde, en ik maar roepen: boem boem tsjakka tsjakka boem boem.... nu weet ik hoe het heet, thanks!
Ik was te jong om iets van deze serie te begrijpen, maar dat het deuntje jaren bij is gebleven dat vind ik wel gweldig :D wat een heerlijk nummer haha..
you bloody aussie bastards! you may have fooled me when i was little, but pauline hanson and john howard have opened my eyes to your racist imperialistic bloodsucking society!
KRO, please, zet het op dvd of zend ze nogmaals uit!!! het is echt té angstaanjagend hoeveel mensen van mijn leeftijd hetzelfde hebben... het deuntje zit al 20 jaar in je kop, en opeens wíl je gewoon weten wat het is... en NIEMAND weet het.... tot nu, gna gna gna!!! helemaal toppie, jeugdsentiment!!!!
I will be eternally grateful to the person that posted this. I am 22 and have asked all of my friends and relatives if they could remember what this show was called - and no one could! So i search google for hours and voila!
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.

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!
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.....
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.
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.
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!
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?
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!
:-) 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!
I LOVE THIS ITS AWESOME
