With its hugely standardised fleet of RT style doubledeckers in the immediate post-war period, London Transport found a need for lowbridge models and bought 76 fairly standard Weymann bodied AEC Regent IIIs with the then normal four seat rows on the top deck and an offside sunken gangway for seat access. They saw service in both central and country areas. On withdrawal they were popular overseas buys being genuine London buses and within overseas height restrictions.

RLH23 (MXX223) was licensed by Timebus Travel around 1987 having been privately preserved by david king since 1967. It is seen here at the 2002 SHOWBUS with RM450, also from the Timebus fleet. |
RLH23 appeared at several earlier SHOWBUS events. It is seen here in 1978 approaching Langley War Memorial.
|
Langley was a mid point on the Road Run from Windsor to the Hillingdon Showground.
