Vintage London buses are back on the roads for one day only – here’s how you can ride one - There’s no need to tap on with ...

London's red buses are among the most iconic symbols of the capital. The reason behind their colour dates to the early 1900s, when the transport system was operated by different rival companies.

The big red double-decker bus has been a stalwart of London life and a globally recognised symbol of the city for over 100 years. In those 100 years, those buses have gone through several iterations.

Normal fees on regular running number 19 buses will still apply, and the London Bus Museum has advised that the vintage buses are not wheelchair or buggy accessible due to their age and design.
