Do remember though, that no routes are crew-operated 24/7.


And also that the death knell has been sounded for the Routemaster
anyway - more and more bendy routes will be introduced, and once
off-bus ticketing and all-door boarding has been introduced on other
routes the loading speed advantage of the Routemaster will be as good
as wiped out.


But the Routemaster still has the advantage of being liked more than
any other sort of bus. Most people I know prefer Routemasters to others
buses. I'm not sure what it is about them but they're just better
liked.
