A detail on the roof sees it printed GAG LT446 for identification from the air.

Registered HYM 808, the double decker is travelling on route 667 to Hampton Court.

Adverts abound on this bus with Crown Wallpapers and a British Railways ad on the sides, White Horse Whisky on the 'eyebrows' on the front, an advert for Outspan Oranges on each side of the rear destination blind and 99 Tea beneath the rear window. You could miss the bus reading all that lot!
