華人巴士司機

Last time in London I saw a driver on 79 who looks like a Chinese.
But more interestingly, an European conductor on 13 spoke Putonghua with me but we ended up talking in English instead!

I know exactly which one you are on about. His name starts with J, he can manage Japanese too and he likes to 'stalk' to Japanese girls in particular.  I remember I have to escort my Japanese 'friends' home to Golders Green from Oxford Circus......... #:-X

In London, there were conductors from Hong Kong since the 60s.  Now, there're a few Chans in Putney (AF).  My mate Li is working at QB for Travel London.  Minggy is working at KX for Metroline.  SW got a few Malays and Chinese as far as I know.  There's also Micky from Hong Kong, working in Hounslow.  Loads of yellow drivers in London man!  There's also another fellow in Coventry who was spotted (by me) driving a Rooutemaster about a month ago.  


PS. was in Winchester for the Asian Bus Response and there was a driver from Hong Kong used to run a Chinese take-away.  He gave me a 'splendid tour' around the city, on his Dart

There is also a Chinese driver at T for Stagecoach, I chatted to him last year while he was having a stop-over between two megabus trips.

It is hard to see a Chinese to drive a Routemaster. Which route did he work on?

Minggy from KX he used to be on the 390.  Also, there was a guy called Chan from Hong Kong (he cant speak Chinese) and Chen from Shan Dong used to be in Putney.

遇過~ 小弟所屬的Sydney Buses Willoughby車廠唔計小弟在內, 有超過10位華人車長,
有幾位仲係香港背景添, 我地廠條288路線更加有"Hong Kong Express"的稱號,
班客仔又好多係香港/亞洲人, 我都試 ...

288沿線經過Macquarie Uni, 當中的社區學院SIBT有八成香港學生, 上堂傾偈
中文大聲過英文, 所以288有不少乘客都係香港人, 當年小弟在SIBT返學, 都
成日坐288.

不知3ASV3兄多不多機會渣288呢?

Did you? I remember saw one in Coventry a few years back too. ;)

In any case, chinese driver are fairly common as I know, esp. in London.
Used to know one working with London Central, but that was 6 years back.

我係wolverhampton就未見過在華人渣車,反而印度人就有好多...

When I was permanent part-time a few months ago, I had a fixed shift as spare bus at Epping station in the morning during weekdays, normally I do 296s, but if 288/290s run late, the inspector puts me on them. Usually he/she puts me on the 8:54 290 to QVB and then I finish the shift, 288 is only for exceptional cases - they tend to run on-time.

Now that I am casual, they can put me on anything, but last time when they called me in, it was an all 288s shift - M2XX, which was originally a 14.5m shift, my depot inspectors tend to give me Epping Road runs - nice indeed!! and I like driving the 288s #;D

而我係渥太華都識得一個, 不過係part-time o既 (正職係教車師傅)

我試過係London半夜三更坐N15居然是香港人渣#
我一上車就好奇試下用廣東話問"我用之前過日張Day Pass ok?"
點知佢真係用廣東話說"可以"
