12. DGX219
Former London Transport STL1700, DGX219, parked, engineless, in the back streets of Hackney in March 1957.

Ian’s Bus Stop shows this as owned by Advance Precision Instruments of Hainault (presumably the Advance in the blind box) from 1956 to December 1957, when it was sold to Walker Brothers, Hackney, presumably those responsible for parking it where it was. The date of my photograph suggests that the sale to Walker Brothers was probably earlier than recorded.

Following recent messages, attached is a later shot of RM980 working on LT contract route 248 on the last day of Frontrunner operation on this route on 30th June 1989 (the contract was taken over by Ensignbus the following day). It is at the Cranham terminus of the route with, alongside, one of the more normal vehicles on the route, ex-GMPTE KBU912P (although this one appears not to be in service).

In early deregulation days many operators were using Routemasters on local bus services including Stagecoach who ran in Glasgow under the Magicbus brand. The former RM1250, 250CLT, appeared at a West Yorkshire Transport Museum annual rally displaying adverts for pensioners travel at 10p and reduced fares for UB40 holders!

276. WLT980
United Counties 711, WLT980, a 1963 Routemaster seemed to do the rounds of the early Stagecoach companies, I assume as a demonstrator to establish in what circumstances Routemasters were suitable. Here on hire to East Midland (or "Frontrunner" as they were briefly titled) it made for an interesting run from Chesterfield via Slack Hill.

277. 274CLT
Not a view I would normally have shared! but thread about rear entrance buses being operated on motorway services reminded me of this sacrilege (LDS67A, Stagecoach or Magic bus 1922, originally London Transport RM1274) when competition was fierce between the rival operators in Glasgow. The service operated via the M8 between the city centre and Easterhouse and this was the last day of Routemaster and Magic bus operation, as well as the closure of Anderston Bus Station. The less said about the actual bus, the better.

When London Transport decided Daimler Fleetlines did not suit its needs, and decided to dispose of them after only a few years, many other operators seized the opportunity both to buy modern buses at a fraction of the price of a new one and to avoid long and uncertain lead times for delivery. One such operator was Hornsby's of Ashby, Scunthorpe. When this picture was taken at their premises in April 1983, KUC972P looked to have only recently been acquired.
