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.


At least the slam door trains are reliable, with over 100,000 miles per
casualty at best. Compare some modern units in the low thousands.
