the 38, the original announcement read as if the off-peak frequency

the first time ever that someone's tried to run the 38 with single-door

transport innovation.

It ran for years with RMs, and I suspect for years before that with RTs,
STLs, LTs or STs - I think they were all single-door boarding double
deckers!
