This is but a small selection of the many bus pictures I have!.
This page features some of the RM routes as they were in 2004, with a number of last days/last week photos.

Tottenham's RML2510 looking slightly worse for wear at Victoria Station, 8th April 2004.
Less than 5 months remained of crew operation.

One of the three routes that lost Routemasters in September 2004 was the 390, which was Metroline's last RML route. RML2395 is seen on 4th June in Oxford Street.

RML2734 was a regular on the 9 and was spotted in June 2004. The 9 is one of the routes that I didn't get to photograph enough in the final year, hence this is not the greatest picture.

Bow's RML2429 is seen at Victoria in April, having been relocated to Wilton Road from the bus station, which after re-opening had less bays than before. That's progress!
Of course, this route lost it's Routemasters in early June 2004, but at least it was a running day to remember, with RM1 & 2760 (the first & last) on the road on the same route at the same time, passing in Oxford Street. I think that was a first!.

Another visitor to the 8's last day was First's RM1650, masquerading as SRM3 as it was in 1977 for the Queen's silver jubilee.

Talking about the last day of RM's on the 8, Blue Triangle's superbly turned out RML900 made an appearance.
Looking very smart indeed, it was pictured in Oxford Street. This bus is a credit to them!!

This was the formerly immaculate RML903, once the pride of Finchley garage. The only outside clues in this picture that this was a show bus are the offside route number, the rear lights which have not been altered, and the white on black number plate.
It was a show bus as it was the last of the initial batch of 24 RML's, (880 to 903) before standard RM's continued in production from RM904 onwards. RML903 heads towards Archway on the 390 in Oxford Street on 8th April 2004.

Here's a shot I took a while ago of RM8. It was the first production Routemaster to be built in 1958, but the last to enter service - in 1976! - after being used for various trials. It ended up in Sidcup and worked the 21 up to its opo conversion on 1st February 1986. Since then it has been owned and preserved in superb condition by the RM8 club.

And now a guest photo from Steve Ridley of RM2156 that he saw in Benidorm, "being driven round the streets as a mobile advert for the zoo. Although all the windows are covered with a (ali??) skin and the back was closed off with a gate I could see it was in complete condition inside. There is evidence of red paint round the drivers door and the original front nearside fog lamp still present."

At the LOTS transport spectacular at Wealdstone on 21st November 2009 was privately owned RM158 looking resplendant.

At the LOTS summer bus rides evening on 19th July 2010 was RMC4, owned by Roger White's London Bus Company.

Another guest photo courtesy of Western Greyhound. RM1062 is found in Perranporth Cornwall in June 2011 on its way to Newquay.

This is RM1593 at Cribbs Causeway The Mall Bristol on 08 February 2011, as taken by Roger Mazey. Before being re-registered to OYM877A, it would have been 593CLT.
