A vintage single and double decker
Transport fan have the chance to ride on vintage vehicles on the anniversary of a big bus overhaul.
On September 7, 1968 a large number of AEC Merlin buses entered service in London, marking the start of a shift from crew-operated double deckers to standee singles.
To mark 50 years since the change, Epping Ongar Railway is hosting journeys on vintage buses from North Weald Station on Sunday (September 9).
In the morning, buses from before 1968 will run from the station to various locations, with post-1968 vehicles running after lunch.
