Summary: An educational production for ages 7-12 - 'Follow a bus in and around London'.
Title number: 1607

Description: 1970's footage of Routemaster buses - namely 277a Poplar, Mile End, 150 Ilford, Romford, Mill Hill Station, Hayes Station. Although billed as an educational video for 7 to 12 year olds is quite technical and designed more for the bus spotter. General Views of Greenford pre Western Avenue flyover. Richmond, Chessington, Morden, Putney to Farringdon services followed. Interesting shots of Central London in the later footage. Sequences of bus number 176 to Willesden Garage driving through Central London. Surprisingly rural shots of routemaster through the village of Down.
