Very tuneful semi-auto Lodekka - EN Bristol FLF6LX coach AVX 975G ride - part 2

Welcome aboard one of the finest and rarest Bristol Lodekkas in preservation! Eastern National's last, of 247 bought, was also the last one built and has been beautifully restored to as-new condition, with full coach seating and luggage racks.
Built to the longer 31ft length, it is fitted with 5-speed semi-automatic gearbox, which gives a very rich aural treat, with high-pitched, very loud whines in each gear ratio.
After a long wait of 32 years since they last ran, it's my great pleasure to share these fabulous sounds with you now - I hope you enjoy them!
In this second part, we take a little faster ride outwards from Southend Seaway terminus to Eastwood, Oakwood, with faster to follow in part 3!
Slight unsteadiness in the view around 2mins30sec was due to my having to open the canopy flap to get some fresh air into the platform area whilst filming - not easy!
