London (Bus) Stop Flags.

Many of these are historic images which were photographed in the 1980's. Unless otherwise stated very little area information is known - although sometimes it is possible for the knowledgeable to guess from the route numbers shown.

Mostly these images were sourced from 35mm slide (transparency) film, although a few were taken using 126 film and modern digital cameras. Alas some images are a little scratched and / or show the effects of mould or other growth on the films.

When it re-opened it became a 'bus-only' road (despite previously having been a designated route for local traffic after the High Road was pedestrianised) and the speed limit was slashed by 33% - down from 30mph to 20mph.

The six images below come from a collection of approx 3" enamel signs which were bought in a 'flea market' at transport event many years ago. It is not remembered whether there were also red bus versions; even if there were none were purchased.
