    In the last shots we see the lady conductor walking home to Hammersmith, to close the film. Nice touch, but no cigar. When all other buses had stopped running, staff would go home on a staff bus, dropping off all over the place as required. I did a few when I worked at Stockwell in the 80s, it paid an hour or two in overtime.I then went home to Tooting on the N87 night bus. I enjoyed working on the RMs...Routemasters, on 7 different routes. When forced to go OPO, one person operated, I stood it for a few months, and left back in 86. The job was finished.

    The number 9 was THE route up into town for me, and I would have gone up there at least 3 or 4 times a month back in the 70s and 80s. Getting on at Mortlake Garage and nabbing the upstairs back seat first was always fun! Such a shame when they curtailed the route due to Hammersmith Bridge.
