Details: Despite the lack of visual clues, most LT enthusiasts will be able to recognise the location of this photo, even if they don't notice the 'Telford Avenue' lettering on the bus shelter! It is of course Brixton Bus Garage (in Streatham!), the site of the departure from normal service of the Routemaster bus in December 2005. Rewind to the mid-1980s and we find Bedford Astra van 3266B parked on the entrance roadway. One of several generations of vans and cars to use (and re-use) roof-mounted roundels, this example was new in May 1984 and lasted until January 1987. In the background is the distinctive read-end of a B20 DMS bus.
