Re: 159 rerun

We will be attending with RML2366 (which was out on the last day of the 159s)

Does anyone have a set of 159 blinds that we can borrow?

And by any small chance does anyone have a set of "You can still take a ride on a Routemaster on Heritage routes 9 and 15" advert side boards" we could use?

As in: http://martin-grosberg.fotopic.net/p23811373.html

Since she still in the livery she when out on the last day (tho a bit more pink red now), we've do our best to re-create the bus as is. Re-paint will happen in Jan now.

Regards

Re: 159 rerun

Hope that this is okay with Chris, but I just thought that I should bring this topic back to the top.

I understand that Tim is off e-mail currently, so he has been unable to update this thread.

Re: 159 rerun

Sorry for the delay, but I have just been trying to make sure I got the facts right.

Meet at Prince Albert Road by Regents Park Zoo entrance at 09.30am for a 10.00am start and the last bus is to leave at 10.30am. The run is to Thornton Heath Clock, avoiding Oxford Street (of course) and then run back to Hyde Park entering Lancaster Gate entrance then turning left to run beside Bayswater Road to park up. Then lay over until the start of the Christmas Lights tour. If anyone wishes to join in on the Christmas Lights tour, they need to e-mail John Hinson (theoldbusgarage@sftt.co.uk at the self preservation society website) to obtain a park permit otherwise they will not be able to enter the park.
