A Pathé Film from 1970. The filming is a bit choppy in places but nearly every bus is a RM, the traffic is amazing - no traffic lights, vehicles everywhere, barely any road marking, cars going across north side of Leicester Sq (never seen that before). There is the occasional glimpse of a RF, United RE Coach and a Red Arrow bus but the uniformity of RMs everywhere is quite a sight - I thought NB4Ls were a plague but RMs had them beat!!
No sound.

And all the FX4s were black Right at the end it shows a few other gems available, including the RT gathering at Ash grove.

Aside from the plethora of Routemasters, RTs and other interesting buses, the other thing about this film that is fascinating is how dirty some of the buildings were in 1970 compared to today (e.g. Royal Albert Hall).
