good advice, when i went round to the bus depot in our town they were more than happy to let me take pictures, also its surprising how many of them in our town are enthusiasts, or at least, enthusiastic.

I could possibly convert it into WMV if you like, as it happens I have this video still on my hard drive, the thing is would you really want this as your ring tone when in town or with your friends LOL. Let me know and I might be able to email it you.

Well, try and do some work experience there and show your enthusiasm, I got to know the drivers over the years and built up a good relationship of enthusiasm. Just let them know that you are genuinely interested.

Ooh so would I! Well I hope you manage something anyway. I am sure you will get your turn some day. Maybe get to know them a bit first by asking to go and take photos, and talk about history and how much you like Yorkshire Olympians. Find out if they are enthusiasts as well, or you might be wasting your time. Hope this helps.

As I remember it I think I turned the starter switch to the middle notch to get the buzzer to stop, it was about 3 years ago to this month.

Well I first started a VR at 12 years old, my friend just out of the blue asked the security guard and he turned round and said if you know how to do it! WOW! I then did work experience and was asked if I would start up about 15 dekers and rev them all up til the air was in.

Other than the annoying buzzer is the fairly high pitched drone you hear that increases with revs coming from the gearbox? Only heard Olympians with semi autoboxes make that sound.
