Thames news stock footage - Buses

[snoggle]

About 20 minutes of standard footage from Thames News with sound but no commentary. Ignore the reference to Airbus as I'm not sure one ever features. Taken at Shepherds Bush, South Ken and Trafalgar Square. Clearly some of it was done purely so Thames News have clips ready to be padded into other news features

Highlights include :-

Metrobuses
a ride down the Marylebone Road on a Leyland Olympian
The "Inter City" bridge at S Bush Green
Titans
a dual purpose Leyland Olympian
Optare City Pacers on the C1
A cigarette smoking minibus driver - how things change
Lots of Routemasters with people getting on and off
A Scancoach
Southend Transport X1
A RCL on Sightseeing work
Cardboard Travelcard season tickets
People paying cash on the bus.
Shots of people waiting and waiting and waiting for buses.

Lovely - there is one shot of an A2 Airbus at 05:44. I did particularly enjoy that and thanks for posting. The shots of the Wayfarer 2 machines in operation were particularly interesting.

Couldn't believe my ears at 13:50 though, what has John done to be such a lucky ######## 😳
