Gosh I remember travelling on those First Glasgow Geminis when they were brand new in December 2004. They replaced all but a handful of the remaining Ailsas on the fleet. Looks like the entire batch is in that yard. How time flies.

Some ex-Dublin Bus Olympians at 1:50 and 6:38 and 12:03. Still miss these. Much better than most of the more recent stuff we've been saddled with.

I would have bought one or two of the buses that are still in good condition. Especially that West Midlands Dennis Dart or an Plaxton President or a Eclipse Gemini. Would be excellent for Rail Replacement services. All three are Low Floor so it would be a better rail replacement compared to coaches.

so strange seeing a lot of Glasgow native buses in that vid, buses that i will as well as millions of other people will have travelled on over the years, great buses and will be missed

Personally I think the original Eclipse’s/Gemini’s look far nicer than any of the current offerings from Wright, AD etc. Nowadays, like a lot of cars, buses have become about odd jagged lines and shapes whereas in the late 90s/early 2000s it was all about curves and sleek bodies.

6:10 it’s HoB WA56 FKO, which was new to us in Devon with stagecoach south west (stagecoach Devon at the time)! Soo cool but sad to see it wherever it is. It’s older siblings are still in use down in Torquay although a lot of them have been withdrawn now. We only have about 5 darts left in daily service now, all being replaced by e200’s

It's the ULEZ in scottish cities that are killing these buses off most would easily see a few years service yet but would cost more than they are worth to convert.
