GW Osborne & Sons, Tollesbury 29, KXW356 was a Leyland 6RT with a Leyland H30/26R body new to London Transport in February 1950 as RTW256, one of LT's 500-strong RTW class, LT's first 8 foot wide double deckers.

It moved from store with LT in February 1966 to PVS (dealer), Upminster and to Osborne's the following month. Withdrawn by Osborne's in March 1973, it was acquired privately as mobile living accommodation. It was noted at a dealer at Elephant & Castle in June 1974 and reported as sold to Wombwell Diesels (dealer) in June 1975, although it was last noted parked up at Waterloo in July 1975.
