Not an RT, I think. Maybe an STL, 1945 Regent II with Weymann body, but I'm open to correction.

And can it was a RLH of London LPTB?

Could be, true. This is what suggested an STL to me:

I answer in french, sorry!

Chris40:
le bus de la photo couleurs que tu cites est avec 7 baies à l'impériale (upper deck), 6 seulement sur celle du film.
De plus, le nôtre présente de grosses moulures de toitures ,pour chaque panneau, contrairement au STL exposé.
Mais je ne certifie pas avoir raison, car il y a eu plusieurs versions de STL (un bus sympa,dailleurs!)
On ne voit pas le bas de caisse(galbé?) ni l' accès "driver cab", pour comparer, dommage!
RLH = carrosserie Weymann

My only comments to add. It appears not to have a rear platform, so is it front entrance?

Also has it got a type of 'Green Lines' logo - looks slightly familiar? edit: found as the "London Country" livery from 1970-72.

@fsebus: probablement tu as raison. L’aspect avant m’a distrait, sans doute caractéristique de la carrosserie Weymann. Contrairement à toi, je ne suis pas spécialiste en autobus! :whistle:
@Sunbar: I think the rear entrance has been blanked off, and there appears to have been a central entrance installed.

I see also some windows are panelled over...

Could it be RLH44, registered MXX 244 (as suggested by fsebus)?

"September 1970 transfer for conversion (Reigate) by Brewster's (Wrotham): most windows panelled, roof skylights, fluoresent lighting from shore supply: mobile uniform store

March 1971 used by London Country as mobile uniform store 581J, matt olive green

April 1982 withdrawn: transfer to Stevenage as office during rebuilding work, from 1983 onwards in preservation various owners."

The description and being used by London Country in 1971 appears to be correct.

Also here in 2008 showing the nearside and repainted by the latest bus operator "Timebus", for special occasion hire, therefore no longer in London Country livery.
