London Buses |
Title: |
ex-British Airways Routemaster buses entered service on route 175 |
Details: |
With the Heathrow coach service being reduced, London Transport bought a number of the forward-entrance Routemaster buses and classified them as RMAs. The first entered service on route 175 (North Romford to Dagenham) on this date. Some were still in British Airways blue and white, and none were given proper blinds. They only lasted until September 1976, after which RMAs were only used as staff buses or driver trainers. |
