RM in Italian ski resort

For many years there used to be an RM static at the top of the Pordoi Pass of the Sella Ronda ski area in the Italian. Rumour had it that it was the one used in the Cliff Richard movie Summer Holiday. It was getting very dilapidated and is no longer there, but I've just seen one down the valley in the town of Belluno which I guess is the same one awaiting sale/restoration/shipment elsewhere. If anyone has any info please email me at adriangphillips@aol.com. Thanks Adrian

Re: RM in Italian ski resort

Cliff Richard used RTs in Summer Holiday, not Routemasters.

My bus number (if any): RML2532

Is it an RM or an RT? You need to get some identification, registration plate, UK one if can be seen or any numbers off the brass plate in the cab next to the seat if RM, or on the dumb irons either side of the radiator if an RT, can't you get a photo?

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