  1. Making a Hollywood Car Chase with RC Cars
  2. Bloody Maxist think that they can park anywhere.
  3. So far from the Channel 205 UK there are 3 videos about his imported Peugeot Hoggar pickup. First one collection day. https://youtu.be/RZe11lIfm4o I keep getting YT links that will not allow the video to be embedded. I hope it is YT not the fourm.
  4. To add to the above it would seem that RMs were running on the 62s for 9 months. https://bus-routes-in-london.fandom.com/wiki/London_Buses_route_62#History
  5. Dad never drove RMs at Barking. He did drive then at Upon Park when he first went on the buses. Route 15. We got to see the Christmas lights for free for 2 years, riding on the top deck at the front. He wanted to work at Barking as it was just a 20 min walk away. He had to wait for a vacancy to work at Barking. Edit: I should say the route he mainly worked on was the 87. I believe he only wanted to work a crew bus. However, when the RTs were withdrawn he was given no choice but to convert to OMO buses. I do not remember RMs at Barking, that maybe is because I was living in Hampshire by that the time the book says they where used on the 62s The days the driver does not have much interaction with the passengers do they. I thought screens and the oyster card (or what ever it is called) put and end to the need to talk to each other. Even the stop announcements are automatic. Driving OMO buses when the Titan was introduced was very different.
  6. I think Dad drove Titan's after the RTs were withdrawn. He dose not do WhatsApp so I have to rely on relying messages via my sister. I will see if I can find out.
  7. ...... because in multicultural London accents are important.
  8. I think we should be honest and talk about eh elephant in the room on the pick up.
  9. @cms206 Well done you for a long stint away from home. Great post above. I was going to ask if you could take a photo of the staff area in Barking for my Dad, he turned 90 around a month ago. I do not know even if that would have been possible to take photos inside those areas. I assume that was inside Barking. Nether of those buses run the routes on the blinds. I was getting "excited" that maybe Dad had driven one of them. http://www.countrybus.org/Titan/TNa.htm Is this taken from the pub on the opposite side of South Park Drive? It used to be called the Royal Oak. I assume that is one of the preserved Titans. I will try and get my sister to show dad the photos.
  10. No that is an Austin Seven... OK I will get my coat.
  11. Oh give up it is only an eclipse. People need stop screaming at a normal and natural event. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-68727865
  12. The Pal-V ; The world's first flying car. https://www.pal-v.com/en
  13. This thread is turning into Déjà vu one. I think I keep see the same cars being posted.
  14. This is a thing. https://www.nulon.com.au/products/aerosols/shift-ya-bastard-multi-purpose-lube-spray
  15. I am old school and prefer the running numbers on the sides in metal plates. Which to be honest thought they would have been stolen far more than they were. The RT in the video is unfortunately a U boat. It did not have a running number. That was Upon Park garage.
  16. Mercedes - Estate - 200 TE Location Belgium. With 15 hours to go bids stand at €3800 plus fees of 18% no VAT to pay. There is no written discription of the km but the image of the dash says there are 311788kms on the clock. https://www.troostwijkauctions.com/en/l/mercedes-estate-200-te-oldtimer-A1-20708-21 It looks a nice place to be. What gets me the A1 description. Changed it back to Dutch which the native language for the website. Still the same old puke coming out of A1's mouth
  17. Did not know that was a thing. So I went looking. It seems like there is only one bus is that correct? I found videos of it mainly working 238 and one terrible one on the 145. Shot in portrait, thus making for me, unwatchable. It does look smart. Question, is the 102 in the front window the running number? Do you even have them these days?
  18. To add to the above found this From Instagram "Fitch 1955 Targa Florio - Mercedes-Benz 300 SLR. "
  19. did wonder where it was taken too
