Routemaster RML Type London Bus 1961

Routemaster RML Type

What is your favourite bus of all time?

In 1961 twenty-four 30ft-long 72-seat Routemasters were built, easily distinguished from the standard RM by the addition of a small window in the centre of each deck. The RMLs ( Routemaster "long") as they were eventually classified were the forerunners of a further batch of 500 delivered between 1965 and 1968, of which 100 were allocated for the country areas. Few operators other than LT showed any interest in the Routemaster, Northern General and British Airways being the exception.
