Preserved London Transport - RM2213 CUV213C - AEC/PRV Routemaster R2RH - Park Royal
This immaculate late RM was new to LT in 05/1965 and is seen here on City Road, Chester, near the railway station, on 14/08/2022. It was operating a round trip from the former airfield at Hooton Park, Ellesmere Port, during the Hooton Park Rally, Running & Open Day. This RM, owned by Alan Jones, initially worked out of the Hackney garage and was one of the last standard length RMs built, the last being numbered RML2217. It was withdrawn in 1998 and passed to K&D Coach Hire, Dyserth, Wales. She then passed to a couple of other private owners for continued restoration prior to being purchased by A1 Bus, Peterborough, in 2006. In 08/2019, A1 Bus ceased trading and she passed to her current owner for continued preservation. It also, on occasions, works for Routemaster 4 Hire, Wrexham, for weddings and other private hire work. © Peter Steel 2022.
