Hi Rosie, there was 64 rmc routemasters built and from known information there is only 21 of these superb vehicles left in this country which is a real shame.

My bus number (if any): RML2613

There were actually 68 RMCs 1453 to 1520 inclusive. The latest RM Assoc, magazine says that exactly 50% survive of which 20 are in the UK, There are 6 in France including my one RMC 1458 which was converted to a bus and used on Route X15. Where this came from in the Vannes in NW France there is another one RMC 1503 and RMC 1499 was spotted near Marseille some time back sitting in a yard.

My bus number (if any): RTL 960 RMC 1458 RM 1585 and several RTs
