  • The driver is my dad, He was one of the several drivers who used to drive the VR's properly and he still drives VR's on special events, XDV 608S was his favourite to drive aswell as VDV 141S - Bristol VRT Mark 3 former First Devon and Cornwall. :)

  • @MrJames1055 Yes he drove the VR respectfully, I seem to remember asome people staying on the bus after dropping off in Penzance, a lad and a woman remained on the bus, might this possibly have been you?

  • Music to the ears and it's being driven properly as well.

    I think a driver that respects such a beautiful machine as well

  • Thanks, I like this video too.

  • @video47 Yes, possibly could of been; i'm with my dad most of the time when he drives.

  • I always remember that noise when I used to tavel on East Yorkshires VR's, what is it? Retarder or something?

  • Sweet music from that Gardner lump!

  • It is a shame they are fading. All Lowestoft's VRs were sold to Devon in 2002.

  • I miss these in Cornwall, used to be great fun with them.
