On Sunday, riders can ride for free on some of the most beloved buses in North London.
For a single day, twenty-three vintage buses will be reintroduced into service to commemorate the thirty years since the Chalk Farm bus depot closed.
The Poppy Appeal will get all earnings from program sales.
Trevor Muir, the event organizer, expressed his hope that both locals and visitors from outside the area will take pleasure in the nostalgia of taking the busses.
“We’re expecting a big turnout,” the former bus conductor said.
“Having something like this isn’t just for the enthusiasts but for the locals who have their own memories with these buses.”
The buses will leave from Euston, Golders Green, Warren Street, Hampstead Heath, and other bus stops in central and northern London.
They will partially follow the Transport for London (TfL) routes 24, 29, 31, 68, 74, and 139.
Fellow organiser Keith Ward told BBC Radio London: “We’ve got volunteer drivers and conductors. We’ve got all of the old bus owners as well.
“It takes a lot of organising because you have to work with TfL who are usually very, very helpful in allowing a certain amount of running days.”
