One of the next London
Bus routes won was the 62's, which ironically was the last bus route to
use RT's.
As such the opportunity could not be missed to regularly turn out RT3232
on this route.

Ensign sold off its tendered
bus work and concentrated on its London Pride Sightseeing division. Again
to allow the vehicle continued use it was re-painted into the Red &
Silver of London Pride Sightseeing. Seen here working on the Docklands and
Greenwich Service it proved enormously popular with tourists wanting to
ride on a traditional London Bus (1995-1996) (Photographer Unknown)

With the London Pride
operation sold off in 1998 RT3232 was completely restored and again wore

of many of the last day of Routemaster operations. Seen here working on
