SLIPPING GEARS & KICKDOWN | Arriva London ADL Enviro400 Trident | T43 (LJ08CSV) | Route 466

Second recent video on the 466, which I do apologise for, although to be fair it is one of the best routes local to me/Croydon. This time, instead of a DW we have T43, one of only two Tridents remaining at TC. This vehicle was in an awful condition a month or so ago, overrevving, dying up hills and slipping in most gears, but since then Arriva has thankfully improved its condition. However it still retains a slip in 1st, which was interesting to experience. This driver was decent, especially up Addington Hills, where there were multiple downshifts from 5th down to 2nd. Enjoy! --------------- Timestamps: 00:08 1-3L Kickdown with Slip 00:31 1-3M Kickdown with Slip 00:55 1-1H Kickdown 01:08 2-3M Kickdown then Speed 01:41 4-3 Downshift 02:11 1-3H Kickdown up Hill with Slip 02:43 4-3 Downshift, then 3-4 Limp Kickdown up Hill 03:05 5 Achieved 03:08 5-4 Downshift 03:11 4-3 Downshift 03:22 3-2 Downshift, then 2-4 Limp Kickdown up Hill 04:15 Thrash 04:31 5-4 Downshift 04:57 1-2 Kickdown with Slip 05:08 2-1 Downshift, then 1-2H Kickdown with Slip —————— T43 (LJ08CSV / LJ08 CSV) ADL Enviro 400 Trident ZF €4 Arriva London South Croydon (TC) Depot This bus was serving route 466 Caterham On-The-Hill - Addington Village —————— New here? I'm SouthernTransportFan, a transport fan living around the outskirts of Greater London. I mostly like buses, exploring both TfL and Non-London services. These will primarily be filmed in a POV-style journey video, showing what the vehicle can demonstrate and how it performs on the road. Expect high speeds, fast drivers and some good-sounding buses! Trains and trams also interest me and are filmed at times. If you enjoyed this video - feel free to have a look around at my channel, and if you like what you see why not subscribe!
