11 april 2010 - Cobham, Surrey (UK). London Transport bought a large number of these underfloor engine, single deck buses in the early 1950s and they had very long lives, many remaining in ‘front line’ service for over 20 years. This is a typical Central Area bus – note that it has no doors, which were only fitted some years later, when they were adapted for one-man operation.

10 april 2011 - Dunsfold, Surrey. The 2011 Cobham show was a celebration of sixty years of the London RF bus, which was shown here in several variants. The RF was built to London Transport requirements and survived in service until 1979. This is the original London Central Buses variant, built with NO DOOR at the insistence of the Metropolitan Police (who controlled such things). All RF buses soon had doors fitted.
