Arriva London

London index

Early London Olympians had highbridge ECW bodywork, C342FYM displays Cowie South London, rather than Arriva alligencies on the N2 at Marylebone.

Olympian/ECW Ls replaced the less conventional two tone green Londonlinks Volvo Citybus/East Lancs deckers on the 176 to Penge as Arriva began rationalising the Cowie and British Bus operations south of the river.

Arriva London: Olympian, L & Procter coach

A Procter's coach passes a patchwork painted L just off Oxford Street.

L212 (D212FYW) seen followed by a DLA class ALX400 through Croydon.

Strictly speaking the gold RT which featured prominently in the Golden Jubilee celebrations belongs to the London Transport Covent Garden Museum, which is where it is seen. The bus was taking part in an Arriva event at the Museum on June 14th 2003. Since the previous year it had lost its 'Transport for London" fleetnames in favour of Arriva and the white band had become purple, along with purple fleet numbers: RT4712 (NXP997).
