Do you want to stop TFL from scrapping yet another Routemaster bus route, do
you want to save London`s heritage?



Only if they keep the cold creaky wet and damp and not to mention
dangerous (don't stand too close to the yellow line when one is coming
into Waterloo) slam door trains as well.

Plenty of people do support them, partly because of faster boarding but
mainly because some of the newer trains were so badly designed!

Just because something has been used for ages doesn't mean they should
be kept. Im sure once Routemasters disspear off schedulded bus routes
they will still be around as tourist attractions and private buses

Unlike the slam door trains, the Routemasters are a London Icon! They're
a lot better suited to London's busy streets than the modern buses that
only let passengers on and off at bus stops! And many of the new buses
have an upper deck that's almost unusable in hot weather! To get better
ventilation than the Routemasters you need air conditioning!
