Ex Northern General front entrance Routemaster FPT589C working a London Sight Seeing Tour in Parliament Street in 1980, on hire to London Transport who gave it the fleet number RMF2761, then RMF2791 to avoid a clash with FPT582C when it was bought by LT in 1979 and numbered RMF2761.
These buses were built in 1965 and worked some of Northern's longer routes such as Newcastle to Hartlepool.
I took this photo in December 1980. According to Wikipedia these buses were withdrawn in 1980. Well, this one was still working in late December 1980.
