Safeguard 90th anniversary
With apologies for the desert dust in the
camera, RT4779 poses in front of Guildford
Cathedral. A regular service connected
the Safeguard depot with the station, the
cathedral and the park & ride, also
operated by RFs and an LT.

Slough. RT4779 is working the garage
journey from Windsor to Cippenham and will
leave the bus station heading west.

After good runs over the 302 and 347, the day
closed with a trip to Warners End on
the Hemel Hempstead local service 320.
The bus is seen enjoying a good view of
the hills from Northridge Way.

Route 22 recce
RT4779 checked out the narrow roads around the
original 22 terminus at Homerton
Clapton Park Tavern. The
original stand in Clifden Road faced the other way, as
displayed by RT1 on 9 August 2014,
75 years to the day after its first visit.
Hertford
Rather obviously away from home, RT4779 stands
opposite Hatfield Station before
working the return 341 to Hertford.
Not the Christmas Lights
Tour
'Summer in the City' is the new name for the
traditional Christmas Lights Tour, now
that it takes place in August. RT4779
pauses in Epsom en route for Hyde Park.
The organisers' 3RT3, RT1784, is followed up
Park Lane in reverse order of seniority
by RT3183, RM1397 and RM2116.
