chaymond ◊ 2024-12-10 18:32	Some background info: “The BEA Routemasters were a batch of 65 front entrance Routemasters buses built in 1966/67, for British European Airways. Designed as coaches, fitted with interior luggage racks and tow hitches for a luggage trailer, they were used to transport passengers from their Cromwell Road Air Terminal in Kensington to Heathrow Airport. Following the merger of BEA and BOAC, they operated for British Airways. All 65 of the vehicles were later sold to London Transport, being renumbered as the RMA class (not consecutively).”
