Hurrah for LPTB! I bet that particular bus has never actually been anywhere near London;-)
It hasn't!! Atlanteans WERE used in London, but in the surrounding areas so they were green.None of them looked like that either!
That bus has never been out of New South Wales, its an ex Sydney bus painted red.
They've done a nice job making them look like ex-LT buses. They even have 55 B'way as the registered address!
What a delight they were to drive when they were new. I was a Southdown driver when our Daimler Fleetline wanderers were replaced with Atlanteans. We thought Christmas had come early.

I had a day out in the Blue Mountains yesterday and this bus turned up. London Transport get everywhere. It did have Atlantian on the back.
