Great work Geoff. I'm thinking of taking my mum to the next open day on a nostalgia trip. I didn't know we could get a free bus ride. I'll have to look out for that.
My mum was brought up in Willesden but moved to Swindon in 1964. She really is looking forward to seeing the old buses and trains she used to use as a kid and didn't even know the depot existed until I told her about it. I'll show her this video as a taster.
The only gripe about the video is it didn't really show much of the tube stocks and the fact you can actually go inside the 1938 stock which I think is a real treat.
Nevertheless, it really is professionally done.

Another splendid outing by Ms. Pipe! Thanks, Geoff. Hear hear - lets have more. - but that wasn't a Routemaster: although apparently there was (RM)one doing trips that day, she got the RTW. |

She did say it was an RTW, however she was wrong about the RTW being the first 8 foot wide buses, that was the SA class trolleybuses. |

She did - but she also said "time to head for the old Routemaster". The RT family are often mistaken for RMs.
We did see a glimpse of a Routemaster at the end of her bus trip.
But as has been said before - she's a natural presenter: are there any more in the Pipeline?

Out on YouTube, the Pipeline includes the Boris Bike, the river ferry, using WiFi on the Underground, and a funny quick trip to Amsterdam and Germany. (Beside this one and the Met S-Stock ride).
There are probably more - Geoff and Vicki seem to be naturals.

I'm guessing it was filmed during the October 'family' open weekend. Top job!
