I took a ride on the 38 bus on friday night just for the sake of it – it was the last run of the old routemaster now replaced with the much reviled bendy bus. so sad to see that beautiful piece of 50’s design disappearing from the streets of london. found this brilliant song summing up the occasion on Richard Wolfe’s website, go listen to it!
