Title: BUS 142 (Dennis Dart SLF) [VIDEO]
Post by: Bus 400 on July 22, 2009, 11:30:06 PM
These was taken from the window at the back seat of Dennis Dart Bus 142. The engine sounded a bit weird, if someone is able to diagnose the different engine sound that pops up during acceleration. The bus did vibrate like hell when waiting at intersections for too long.

Probably one of your better videos - they're much more interesting when you record them from up the back where we can hear the engine properly.

Nice one, TP. Looks like you were able to hold your camera pretty still in spite of riding in a Dart.

But gee those billboards in Gungahlin are crass!

Thanks, there aren't any good seats up the front of a dart. I just rested the camera on the window sill, which is why you may see a black line of the bottom of the screen.

just out of interest, why would you sit up the front to take the video? sure, you get to see where the bsu is going but the engine is not as audible.
