Summary

[edit]
Description
English: An old bus in Belgrade, Serbia, wearing a red London bus livery dating from the late 1980s. It's reason for being in Belgrade is unknown, but it does not appear to be in use as a tour or transport bus. It has blinds fitted in the upper deck windows, and 'Filteri Frad' is a Serbian automotive parts (filters) company (see [1]). Despite the image's title on Flickr ("7132_routemaster-in-belgrad"), it is not a Routemaster bus. According to one Flickr commenter, it appears to be a "Bristol LD" (i.e., a Bristol Lodekka (see Bristol Commercial Vehicles). Underneath the Frad advert, the bus appears to be wearing the red and white livery of Metroline Travel Ltd when it was a London Buses Ltd subsidiary, based on the white line, the white logo near the cab obscured mostly by the F of 'Frad', and the round logo below the 'Frad'. This combination of livery and logos was only in use between 14 December 1988 and 7 October 1994, but it's not clear why this bus is wearing it, as Bristol Lodekka's were never used on London Transport routes, and besides, by the 1980s, the Lodekka was too old to be considered a regular service bus. Although it was not unknown for London Buses to use old models for private hire/tour use, see - Category:Preserved bus in the UK (GJG 750D).
