I live on the 153 route in Islington which was recently converted to these BYD all electric buses.

It's fantastic. In a quiet residential area they are nearly silent and when I cycle by them on the way work there's no fumes.

The strangest thing is when you ride them you hear every seat rattle and squeak because there's no roaring engine to drown it out.
