No, those are newer ones from 2011.
The ones that Boltar refers to were three that were introduced in 2004
and were in service on the 25 and later on the RV1.
All three [ESQ64991/2/3] were withdrawn from service in 2007 and went to
museums, 64993 as far as I know is still in the London Transport Museum
in Covent Garden.
ESQ64991 is allocated to the Science Museum
ESQ64992 TPT Beith
I don't recall seeing ESQ64993 when I visited the LT Museum last year so
it may well be at Acton.
