Worcester Park Running Day 2008

Images of the 127

On its way from Worcester Park to Morden, and followed by RF28 on the 725, RLH48 recalled the days when green RLHs were loaned to the central area to cover vehicle shortages.

As in the days before the RLHs, route 127 also needed help from time to time from single-deckers off route 200. RF366 obliges on a duty from Morden to Malden via Worcester Park.

The 127 was the one Central Area RLH route that RLH23 didn't operate during its time with LT, having started life as a green bus before moving to Harrow Weald, Hornchurch and Dalston. That deficiency has now been rectified.

Former Huddersfield Daimler CWA6 looked splendid in its London colours specially donned for the day. It represented the class that worked the route before the RLHs, and is seen at Morden standing in front of the green RT.

At the southern-most point on the circle, RLH61 relives its youth at North Cheam.

Er, green?

RF667 also contributed to the single-deck support on the 127.

Qs did of course run on the 127 in the days before the RLHs.

RLH61 has the road under Worcester Park bridge to itself.
