Route 77a recreated

Route 77 used to have variations lettered A B and C. The last to go was the 77a which was renumbered 87 a few years ago. This was the last 'suffix' route in London. On Sunday 19th September 2010, Roger Wrights London Bus Company (with help from Ensign) recreated this service (though only over the Clapham Junction to Kings Cross section) using a selection of 56-63 year old RTs and an RTW. Don't know why. Don't know how they ever got permission from Transport for London to do it (they were taking fares!) Not that I'm complaining!

This is Ensign's RT 4421 looking a little out of place as it pulls up to the pick-up stop in futuristic Vauxhall bus station.
