free reading118 Big Red London Bus

Big Red London Bus
Big red buses are recognized , and even found all over the world , and people recognize them as symbols of London. It was almost 100 years ago, on October 25th 1911, since then the big red motor bus has been London's "king of the road". The idea of the "double decker" is actually much older than the motor bus. The earliest horse-drawn doubledeckers in London had steps at the back, so that people could climb up onto the roof. Things started to go wrong for the London bus in the late 1960's. London, however , resisted the bureaucrats ! , it's not too late to enjoy travelling on one of these historic buses. Some of the old buses have been preserved, and are used on two "heritage routes" through the centre of London, specially for tourists.
