I was surprised today how many of the 1961 RML batch seemed to be
still in use on the last three Routemaster routes.

I saw three of them on my way home, 892 and 895 on the 159 and 888
(IIRC) on the 38. I remember 899 was a regular on the 14 too. How
many of the batch of 24 are still in service?

Am I right in thinking that no RMLs are running on the 13 so any
RMLs still in service are on the 38 or 159?

you still get the odd RML on the 13, they still have the London
United logo on them

Oh well. I only see 13s crossing my path at Trafalgar Square so don't
get to see as many as I do of the 159 and 38 whose routes I pass along
(159 in Whitehall) or cross in more than one place (38).

While I will be sad when the 13 RM`s do finally go at least Golders Green is
close to where I live so attending the final day with all it`s (fingers
crossed) special services will be a lot easier.

For the last 13 years this route has been my main way of travelling to the
west end, purely because riding a routemaster is more comfortable and more
fun then getting the tube.
