The Bus Inspectors are joined by Andrew Wickham and Anthony Delaine-Smith, two respected figures in contemporary bus operation, to discuss heritage fleets, brands and traditions, and what they mean to passengers and staff. We visit RM70 - the Routemaster's 70th Birthday celebrations - to find out how so many RMs have survived and which are the most important ones for continued preservation.
