Routemaster in Scotland Strathtay Scottish DVD
Independent Transport Videos are proud to present this archive video presentation of the iconic AEC Routemaster bus running in service with Kelvin Scottish, Clydeside Scottish and Stagecoach Magicbus. The video was shot by transport photographer Malcolm King in the late 1980's and features the Routemasters running in service in and around Glasgow. Malcolm now takes up the story…
“It is early evening in Paisley with the sun starting to set and we see a variety of Clydeside vehicles including the iconic Routemaster. The following day I set out for Johnstone garage and film a selection of RMs featuring details such as their names, RM fleet numbers and registration plates. It was ‘Rodney the Routemaster’, RM652 that brought about the naming of the Routemasters with boys names beginning with the letter "R", examples including ‘RUDYARD’, ‘ROY’ and ‘RUSSELL’. Despite the boys names we see a young lady driver water RM550 before she takes to the helm!
