The RTW was London Transport’s first 8-foot wide motor bus - six inches wider than its predecessors. 500 were built by Leyland Motors Ltd. between 1948 and 1950. They first ran on suburban routes because of concerns about their operation in narrow streets. After successful trials they quickly moved into Central London, where they were a familiar sight throughout the 1950s and early -60s. Fewer than twenty RTWs saw service with independents but RTW 341 entered service with Barton Transport at Ilkeston Garage in February 1966 as Barton 1035. KXW 441 was Barton’s only RTW and was withdrawn in 1971.
