The Routemaster was the successor to the RT, and like in predecessor it was designed by London Transport to handle the rigors of service in the capital. The first production vehicles entered service in 1959, replacing trolleybuses at Popular and West Ham garages. In all over 2100 standard length Routemasters entered service between 1959 and 1964.

In 1932 there suddenly appeared on the London streets a revolutionary new design with a full front and seats in the position where orthodox passenger vehicles had engines. An entirely new design of chassis was evolved by AEC at Southall, with the engine posistioned on the offside frame member behind the front axle. After the success of the single deck Q with L.G.O.C and provincial operators, the L.P.T.B ordered 102 4Q4 type for Country Area bus work which entered service throughout 1935. Although far ahead if its time, the Q Type was only in production for 4 years but it paved the way for the underfloor engined type so much in evidence today. In August 1952, Q75 was withdrawn from normal passenger work and converted for use by the service fleet as a training vehicle for Civil Defence exercises, in which capacity it was converted into a mobile gas unit. It was renumbered in May 1954 to Q1035CD.

London United began as London United Tramways in the early 1900s. They were bought out by Stanwell Buses Ltd (Westlink) from London Transport in 1995 and by Trandev in 1997. They once operated trams (until 1933) and trolleybuses (until 1952). The name was reincarnated when London United Busways set up as a subsidary of London Buses during the late 80s. Upon privatisation in 1994, it was purchased by a management buyout and remained London United. In 1997 the bus company was puchased by French transport group Transdev. London United operates approxmately 60 routes on contract to Tfl (Transport for London) and employs around 2000 staff.

The Metrobus manufactured by Metropolitan Cammell Weymann in Birmingham, was the next volume purchase by London Transport of new double deck buses after the DMS. With LT running Metropolitans from the same manufacturer, they took a demonstrater on loan at the end of 1977. This resulted in a trial of 5 vehicles running in 1978/9 that was first succesul so orders were placed for a significant numbers that were progressively introduced from 1979. The production vehicles could be distinguished from the trial vehicles as they had smaller, Routemaster style, blind boxes. LT considered the MkII version by trialling a pair against Leyland Olympian, Dennis Dominator and Volvo B55 types. A third Metrobus MkII was also due for delivery as a MkIII prototype but never materialised, like the MkIII Metrobus itself. Apart from a number of single door MkII's for Harrow and a few secondhand vehicles bought from the north of England the LT fleet was all MkI with the asymmetrical widscreen design. The LT Metrobus fleet went on to total 1,485 with LT becoming the biggest customer for the Metrobus, even beating West Midlands Travel in whose territory the Metrobus was built. M331 ended its London sevice running for London General.
