ROUTEMASTER DOUBLE DECKER BUS




The original Routemaster Bus was designed in the early 1950�s and some fifty years after its first appearance, almost 1,000 examples of this famous London Bus still exist in the British Isles.
Routemaster Double Decker Bus, �BTA� (British Travel Association) �London Transport�, by Corgi Toys; MRN C469, issued in 1975 and currently available. The decal on the upper side reads �BTA Welcome to Britain�, with a Union Flag motif; and �London Transport� on its lower side. This model is common-but a variant bearing a label advertising the James Bond film �Octopussy� on one side only, is extremely rare.
