A Little Bit of History

Image: © Martin Addison Taken: 10 Apr 2011

Ensignbus's Routemaster coach, RCL2220, pulls away from the Marylebone Cemetery bus stop. Routemasters once operated the 143 route but certainly not the coach version! Behind the current vehicle type on the 143 route - an ADL Enviro 200 - pulls up to collect a bemused passenger. The bus was on a wedding party job and the crew were looking for the East London Synagogue - which fortunately I was able to direct them to. The bus has been cleaned and polished for the job and the paint glows in the bright spring sunshine (no - I didn't boost the saturation!).
