AEC Regal IV RF (BEA) #MLL 740
5 april 2009 - Cobham (UK) – bus museum. Compare this bus with http://www.phototrans.eu/14,315545,0.html - it’s an identical London RF-type Regal IV, but with a very different body. London Transport operated a fleet of 65 of these airport coaches on behalf of British European Airlines between Heathrow and Central London in the 1950s and 1960s. They are an unusual one-and-a-half-deck layout, with space beneath the raised rear seats for passengers’ baggage. They didn’t have LT fleet numbers. They were replaced in the mid-1960s by front-entrance Routemasters pulling separate baggage trailers – another interesting operation.
