AEC Routemaster Bus
There is an opinion that double-Decker buses are the brainchild of the British firm Leyland, but in fact it is the development of the British company AEC.
The Routemaster was designed in 1954, and two years later it hit the streets of London, eventually becoming one of its symbols. Production of this relatively compact but roomy car continued until 1968, but the last bus with the serial number RM2217 made its last run through the streets of the British capital on December 9, 2005. In total, 2976 buses were built, about 1200 cars were preserved, and 550 veterans are still in operation - they are used on tourist routes in different cities of the world, as well as as mobile clubs and cafes.
