Sorry, but as a Bristol bus driver in the 70s with crash boxes and manual steering, I'd say they were very advanced for their age. Yep. Advanced for the 1950s. A modern vehicle (e.g. most recent London Buses) tends to be a far easier drive and is more advanced. Technology has come a long way in 50 years. Rob. -- rob at robertwoolley dot co dot uk |

Robert Woolley ) gurgled happily, sounding
much like they were saying : A modern vehicle (e.g. most recent London Buses) tends to be a far easier drive and is more advanced. Technology has come a long way in 50 years. Yes. And an RM is a big meccano set that can be - and has been - upgraded. They use late 1990s mechanicals currently, and could easily be upgraded to 21st century mechanicals. There's RMs running at Euro 3 emission levels. |
