CUV 304C). It then saw service based out of Godstone, Stamford Hill, Highgate and Chalk Farm garages, being overhauled and repainted several times inbetween, as was the norm, before settling at Bow garage on route 8 from 1975. Having been given a life extension of a Cummins engine in 1991 and a refurbishment in 1993, it became one of the last Routemasters to see service in London. Having been privatised as part of Clapton garage's fleet, via Leaside Buses, into the fleet of Arriva London North in October 1994, it was eventually withdrawn in October 2005 with the conversion of route 38 to bendy buses. It then passed into the ownership of Millwall Football Club in April 2006.
