[Spartacus]

For one day only, there will be some classic buses running along the 37 route around Rye Lane (Saturday the 1st October)

Great thanks for the heads up Spartacus!

Good that London Transport is doing this. The old style buses were great, although I remember when the lower deck was full you had to go upstairs to the top deck. Smoking was still allowed on the top deck up until around 40 years ago (not sure about that date) but just remember sitting in a sea of smoke when I had just finished work!

Think it was only after the Kings Cross fire that smoking on buses and tubes was banned. Seems totally mad in retrospect.
