RTL139 (KGK803) alongside RTW497 at EFE Showbus 1999 completing a line up of several AEC

RTL1050 (LLU829) was one of Ted Brakell's fleet of ex London buses. It had clearly been converted
to open top and was in crimson and white coours, not dissimilar to Portsmouth's fleet. It is seen here
at Langley on the Road run to Hillingdon as part of Showbus in 78 or 79. The bus was hired by the
Hillingdon Show committee to tour the borough promoting the Hillingdon Show on occasions.
