We need the Routemasters back for many reasons like it brings money in for tourism whilst the economy needs money this would be good and plus they look nice.
2004 Ey.. MCWs and Leyland Olympians still in service... Mind you the Routemasters on Route 8 were outstanding as BW batch have given all the routemaster are refitted engine sounding different from all the other Routemasters. Back in the 90's BW Routemaster were on AEC Engines and RMl2738 being the loudest then some time round 2000 they got re fitted.
The most beautiful bus ever! I have great memories of the RM, the sound and smell of them, and the way one would pull up right close behind another one - as a kid I would rush to sit upstairs above the driver...fantastic!
Can someone tell me why in later years the original lights were replaced with hideous light clusters, spoiling the look of the back of the bus? It was bad enough they had to splash "Arriva" all over them, it's like tampering with a listed building.
if i will win alot of money someday i will put it on my bank acount wait till it gets realy much and i will give it too the briotisch govverment and i'll say get the routemasters back on the streets of london!
