So will Friday mark the end of Routemaster service by buses with
their original registration marks?


No, as not all RMs lost their original registrations. I work off
Piccadilly and haven't seen any RMs on he 9 bearing non-original marks
yet.


You surprise me because I haven't yet seen any 9s or 15s _with_ their
original registration marks. Nor have I seen any RMLs on the heritage
routes.


*All* 20 RMs allocated to the 9 and 15 retain their original
registrations.

First
1204/1218/1280/1562/1627/1640/1650/1735/1776/1913

A look at the fleetlist in the enthusiast section on:
http://www.firstlondontimetables.co.uk/
confirms that the First vehicles carry original numbers.

Stagecoach
324/652/871/1933/1971/1968/2050/2060/2071/2089

A quick search through the 2005 LOTS fleetbook shows that the
Stagecoach ones do as well.
