Hall Of Fame

[Liverpool Street]

Just a random thought from a post I made earlier. I remembered to post this at last to make a thread for the Hall Of Fame of the bus world. When posting your buses of fame, they can be for any reason, either a reputation, rarity, sounds, rare combination, prototype etc.

Please be aware a bus can only be posted once. You must post an image of the vehicle and a short explanation of why it deserves to be in the Hall Of Fame.

So, here goes.

NXWM 4089 - For sounding the most like a Leyland Lynx when pulling off.

Others might not recognise the characteristic whine of one of these pull off, but if you want to flash back to the "good-old days", travel on 4089.

Pensnett Garage - For having an unrivalled number of demonstrator vehicles.



Numerous 1908's! The enviro300, the b7rle urban and the b7rle Evolution!

Here's a video of the 3rd 1908 NXWM 1908 BF12KWT on the X96:

The Green Bus 101 - for being the fastest Trident!


Tony's photo - believe it or not, I don't have one of my own...

[Rob H]

NXWM 4900 'Jennifer' - for being the fastest and smoothest E400



An excellent example of BC's most recent acquisitions... Quick and smooth!

4053 - the only President with LCD screens (that don't even work)



4518 - a Gemini that always has its coolers on



4234 - the only ALX without a rear grille/radiator, this one also always has its coolers on

London Borismaster - Best overall advert?



Why not one from London? Good going!

[Liberator9]

Didn't think I'd include an Optare but here is one! 20833 is the fastest Optare



1916 - Smoothest suspension


1833 - Smartest Scania Omnilink; because it still has the silver light surrounds and the smart NX red - still looks freshly painted 2 years later




4722 - Best sounding 07 reg Enviro 400



Will add more at a later date!

@Liberator9 those things really fly. The 06 plate Woosh one I had on the 355 on Friday was a rocket.

@Matt 

I agree! Had it on the S2 this afternoon and the driver thrashed it constantly; I have never had such a fast bus - apart from a Citaro  ;)

[Sh4318]

4329 - for having a distinctive whistle in when accelerating, sounds heavenly to say the least
4642 - best sounding Gemini at WB

[CL]

Not from the West Midlands region. I think it's quite nice, and special...
I present to you, an open top Gemini.
