Lurking in the shadows, 1790 and 2773. 1790 is still around, 2773 departed to Wombwells in June.

McLean, TX along old Rt. 66. It looked like a ghost town!

An RT has strayed on to the 35. Pictured at Brixton station. Probably in 1973. Notice the footbridge there used to be across the road here. Ugly, and awkward for pedestrians. People counted for little against cars in the 1970s.

Location: what the hell is "Ferndale, Lambeth"???

Learning to drive the hard way, in an RT, with an instructor yelling in your ear. It worked for thousands, "Chiswick Trained" was a badge of honour.

This RT colour scheme may upset a few London enthusiasts but it looks rather nice in the long lost Leicestershire Independent livery 'Browns Blue'. Complete with local adverts KLB 596 made it's debut at the 2012 Leicester Vintage Bus Running day in September.

The RT makes a nice contrast with the Leyland bodied PD2 parked behind.

Passing through Hornchurch High Street on route 193 is Seven KIngs based RT 3712 (AP), on Thursday 27th February 1975. RTs survived on this route for another nineteen months until conversion to RMs on 3rd October 1976. 2H-5.

Right at the very end of RT operation in South London in 1978 one strayed onto the 47, a route that had been converted to RM three years previously.

Another 'prewar' RT was present- RT113 at the Chiswick Gala . 2/7/83.

This old girl also met her end in August after a short spell at Catford.

I've finally finish the AT-RT also commonly known as clone walker.

From the Rendered version to this one I had to change a few things, either because there weren't the parts in the color I desired or because I thought the new parts would look better. Color wise, I changed the feet to DBG, changed the bigger cilinders in the legs from olive green to LBG and also changed the quarter round tiles to LBG. Appearance wise, I decided to change the turret, the rendered version was too long and didn't feel quite as good in the overall composition as this one does. I also had to make custom pieces that mimic the piece no 886956 which only exists in pink but looks very accurate to the model in-universe, I had to use it!

Hope you like it!

RT1 at the Chiswick Gala, 2/7/83. Due to the number of buses present they were unfortunately very close together so restricting photography.

And still it soldiered on.

Rather better than the Ikea picture of a battered RML in the same bus lane! Headed north in mid '77.

I think this was the lowest numbered RT still in regular central area service at the time.

A surprise visitor, long after the official "end"

Pedal to the metal , it might make it in top!
