RM 180 on Route 180


RM 180. VLT 180. on route 180. Abbey Wood - Lower Sydenham has just run into Abbey Wood Garage, with a 177 RT behind. 'Let them wonder where you are.' the Advertisement for Pan-Am airways says. Often waiting passengers for the 180 would do just this on days when the traffic in Greenwich was at a standstill due to trouble in the Blackwall Tunnel before the second tunnel and the approach roads were built.
April 1969.

A rear view of RM 180. VLT 180. on route 180 at the entrqnce to Abbey Wood bus garage. It looks like it is running a short to Woolwich Hare Street. There wasn't very many shorts worked to Woolwich from Abbey Wood. Not quite sure what the advertisment 'Shop Early By Bus' means..
