I can't seem to get my fill of the hummingbirds ... These were taken this afternoon in between rain showers in our garden - Andover, NJ
On a seasonal theme - here is RT1123 on the 62 route at Marks Gate running empty! 30/1/72 - the 62 of course was the last RT route 7 years later.

Hey there, here’s an AT-RT clone walker of the 501st. I’m very happy with the result. If you like it then please leave a fave or write your opinion in the comments below. Bye!
I really can't stop building these; they're just too much fun. I wanted to make more of a foldy one.
The RT-10 is used mostly by pirates to disable enemy starfighters and freighters before capturing. It is equipped with a powerful ion lance which can shut down most starfighters and even some larger ships. The RT-10 is also equipped with two electro-harpoon launchers which can be fired at the disabled craft to fry the pilot(s) and then later used for towing.
One particularly infamous squadron of pirates, the 'Storm Crows', were known for playing the song Rock You Like a Hurricane on all frequencies before descending on their prey. Thereafter the fighter became know as the "Hurricane".
Pausing outside its home garage is RT 2628 (L), changing crew on route 20A. This was the last route at Loughton to retain RTs and all had gone during 1977, and like so many others so has the garage. Monday 24th February 1975. 2G-5.
As the sun sets on RT operation at Harrow Weald, de-commissioned buses line up for their ultimate destination.
AEC Society Rally 2022
Grimsby Corporation Transport 81, late 1946/47 RT-type AEC Regent III O961215, Roe H31/25R, JV9901.
Grimsby 81 is the only surviving example of a "Provincial-type RT". Withdrawn after twenty years service in August 1966, the RT has been owned by John Pitcher ever since. A late entry not in the programme, the 2022 AEC Rally was the first event the bus has attended for more than fifty years.
The RT was driven to and from the rally by Craig Schofield, who can normally be found behind the wheel of the fab Leyland Super National JMY120N. Craig positioned the RT for the cameras at the end of the day.
A remarkable entrant, and my pick for star of this year's show.

I thought I'd scan a few of my older bus pictures and they don't get much older than this one which my father took when we visited Lesney Products in Hackey Wick around 1979.
Ex London Transport RT's KGK954, KGU413, ***471?, LUC291 and some friends are seen parked up in the yard over a weekend.
Destined to be the last RT in public service, 624's cab heater must have been ineffective judging by the newspaper stuffed in the vents.
To celebrate 75 years since the introduction of the type to London's streets, a number of AEC REgent III (RT) buses operated over route 11.
RT3491 (LYR 910) is seen in Whitehall heading for Aldwych.

RT 75th Anniversary Running Day
2nd November 2014.
Hey everybody! Here’s a little update I did on my AT-RT
I made a custom sticker for it! I think it looks pretty good xD
What do you think?
The annual Ensign Running Day took place on Saturday 4th December 2021 after missing out 2020. It was better than ever, with an extra route (now 4 in total) and it was sunny for a lot of the time. Many thanks to Ensign and all the volunteers who made it happen.
The St Helens RT poses in the morning sun at Gravesend on the X55 to Upminster - taking in the Dartford Crossing and two shopping centres - Bluewater and Lakeside! This 1952 bus spent some time with Harper Brothers of Heath Hayes.
Originally a Romford (RE) Green Line bus, it was painted red in 1972 and moved around a fair bit until sale to Ensignbus in 1979 and was soon restored to original livery. It has since been repainted Ensignbus blue and silver.
This route really ran through some country areas even though only a few miles from Romford. At Bournebridge on 12/10/68 is 'Top-Box' RT 3696, still with its cream cantrail, dropping off two passengers. The 175 route went through unusual allocation latterly , using RMA's in late '75 , back to RT's then eventually RM's in '77.
