DW50 was seen in last night's episode of the new London buddy cop series Bulletproof, the bus blinded for Barking but no route numbers. It was during the scene with the ongoing crossfire between the criminals and police team.

Does anyone know if RT 77 is still around? I read that it was in 1996, but in a poor condition (pic not mine)
