RLH 178 Last Chance


RLH61 passes under the Carpenters Road low bridge for the very last time. The road was closed the next day for works for the 2012 Olympics. When the road reopens the bridge will no longer be low.
This was the last RLH in service back in April 1971. RLH61 then spent many years in Canada before being repatriated and restored by Ensignbus.

RLH61 travels along Lee Conservancy Road. The building on the right are built on the site of the old Lesney factory. In the distance above the bus can be seen a remaining building. I wonder was an RLH model ever made there.
