Product Info
One of the eight pre-production New Bus for London prototypes which were trialed in February 2012, Arriva LT2 was the first New Routemaster that took on paying customers, and it’s first journey took on London’s busiest route, route 38.
In it’s standard red livery it carried the registration LT61 BHT, this was changed in 2013, when Transport for London decided to re-register all it’s prototypes to the same registration we see today with the LTZ Letters.
Now known as LTZ 1002, in 2014 it was painted its green base colour and trailed to Arriva West Yorkshire, it was there for 2 years and was then brought back to London where it was adapted to the commemorative livery of London Country Bus Services, echoing the original RM2 Protoype Routemaster that carried the same colour scheme back in its trials of the London country area in 1955.
