5 április 2009 - Cobham (UK). The first rear-engined double deckers in the London Transport fleet were some experimental Leyland Atlanteans and eight similar Daimler Fleetlines, bought for comparative trials in 1965. This Fleetline ran on the route that turned on the corner of the road where I was living, so I saw it often. During peak hours, it carried a conductor, but at quieter times the upper deck could be closed off with a gate and it ran as a driver-only bus. At this time, the trade unions would not allow one person to operate a double deck bus without a conductor. These and the Atlanteans were the first serious attempt to introduce front entrance/rear engine buses into London. The Fleetline was selected and many were built – this was the DM/DMS Class.
