Full Thrash & Redlines | Metroline Travel Route 81 | Wright Gemini 2 Volvo B9TL (VW1386, LK62DTN)

Today, we have a Voith gear-boxed B9TL, a combination which isn’t very common in the UK, let alone London, with Metroline being one of two operators to own these, Stagecoach being the second. The B9 chassis is more commonly paired with a ZF gearbox. Manipulating the gearbox on these buses can cause a downshift which leads to it holding gears until redline, which is seen multiple times in this video. This was recorded on route 81 which predominantly runs along the A4 which gave many opportunities to max out at 39mph. London bus route 81 is operated by Metroline Travel, out of their Lampton (SG) garage. It is allocated with Wrightbus Gemini 2 Volvo B9TL vehicles. Route 81 operates between Hounslow Bus Station and Slough via Hounslow West, Cranford, Harlington Corner, Heathrow North, Poyle, Colnbrook and Langley.
