While the 5A and B were based on earlier Leyland Titans, the Routemaster was an AEC product with design specification provided by London Transport. It was first exhibited in 1954 with four prototypes entering service in 1956 until 1958. From 1959 the Routemaster was in regular service up to 2005. 2,876 Routemasters were built and due to their iconic status and excellent build quality, 1,280 are still in existence. The Matchbox 5C Routemaster replaced the 5B London Bus in 1961. It was slightly upscaled but it was unmistakably a Routemaster. It had superb grille detailing and came with BP Visco-static decals, though there were a few rare variations on this. It was replaced by the 5D in 1965 which was again upscaled but it now had a white plastic interior added. However, this came at the cost of the front silver trim. My 5C example was terribly paint-thinned and had significantly rusty axles. The 5D was in slightly better condition but was again a bit thin in the paint department. Both received a fresh coat of red paint and a very nice set of reproduction advertising decals.
