During RM1872's life on London's streets, particularly in Brixton, certain passengers were moved to record their pleasure at travelling on a London icon and so they scratched various messages onto the 'bus.  This "tagging" was particularly bad upstairs and the marks on the glass shewed up at night so we have bought a complete set of window panes from PSV Glass and new rubber from the RMOOA.  Here are a few pictures of us installing the new, crystal clear, windows.
We also replaced the the rubber seal that runs along the winder bar.  This was very easy to replace if lubricated with washing up liquid and pushed into place with the PSV spatula.
