LT/LCBS Bus Garages
There was clearly a policy of officially withdrawing several RM`s a few weeks prior to the service changes of 4 September 1982 that would result in around two hundred being deemed surplus to requirements.
At Muswell Hill Garage on 24 August 1982, former driver trainer RM 175 is without blinds and L plates but is otherwise a complete bus. It was one of several with an AEC engine that met the withdrawal criteria and was sent to Norths for parts reclaim and subsequent scrapping. It carries an NS garage code and had been active there as a trainer so why it has finished up at Muswell Hill isn`t clear.
Ford Escort service vehicle 2291F is also present as are several DM`s for the 43`s which would revert to RM operation with the aforementioned service changes.
