Heritage buses at North Weald station

This is at North Weald station which is now on the Epping to Ongar Heritage Railway. North Weald is now the central base for the Epping Ongar Railway's motive power fleet. This was the London Transport Weekend which celebrated the Epping Ongar Railway's links with London Transport. Heritage buses were running a service between Epping Underground station and North Weald station. The nearer bus is an RF which was the standard single-decker in the London Transport fleet in the 1950s and 1960s. The further bus is a lengthened Routemaster RML which came later than the RMs and could seat eight more passengers. The NF code shows that it is based at Northfleet Garage in North Kent.
