RM on Route 211, 11/11/13 (Armistice Day)

 

The same bus, two views. RM1005 on Route 211, Waterloo Station

In the same instance as the 4/24 RM/Ls on Red Nose Day, RM1005 did the 211 and RML903 did the traditional 24. Both were again competing for the most money raised. Both again gave tickets, and there were quite a few enthusiasts varying in age. Yet I was the only one in any type of suit! Apparently, the 24 ended up running one hour late, and this 211 turned out to be 5 minutes early into Hammersmith. But enough about that, this running of Routemasters are for a good cause, for the Poppy Appeal to help raise money for remembering the soldiers from the wars that British Forces have been involved in.
Running for Armistice Day are RML903 on Route 24 and Sir Peter Hendy's RM1005 (with Tower Transit legals) on Route 211. Again, I decided to follow at least one of them, and I chose the easiest to cover - the 211:

I then took the aforementioned bus to Hammersmith:

Oh, and the information sticker inside the bus. Yes, that's Sir Peter Hendy's address.

Oh, and one more thing.
Quack.
I have the A4 sheet on the rear saying 211 - white on black and two posters (A4 and A3).
Quack.
