Hard to believe but the LT Routemaster bus is older than the Rolling Stones! Designed in the early 1950s and delivered from 1958 it predates the band by some 4 years. Although finally withdrawn from active LT service in 2005 a small heritage fleet still operate routes 9 and 15 during the day so maybe they can outlive the Stones...but probably not! Enjoyed a trip in this example from Tower Hill to Trafalgar Square last week.
