Plenty going on here. TD95 loads at
Malden Fountain (the pub is the cream building with
flowers), which its compatriot from Cobham receives attention (the
bus is petrol-engined and, the carburetor being close to the
exhaust manifold, has a tendency to vaporise fuel when hot).
Three types of modern single-decker add to the scene, as well as an
EVL approaching on TfL's 213. The whole scene is captured
from the rear window of the utility Daimler.

Two allocations that
stretched historical credibility were RTW75 on Merton's route 32 -
Merton only had RTWs for the one week trial on the 88 - and the RMC
on the 712, which was always single-decked. But they look
nice and are fun to ride on.

1970s-liveried RM1033 passes the 1950s classic

An everyday scene in Sutton Garage - RTs on the
164 and 154 await departure on their respective routes. Every
other day is no longer like this, sadly.
