Wednesday 3 April 2013 (1340) – A view towards the rear platform area on one of the ‘New bus for London’ prototypes [LT2 (LT61 BHT)]. During the main part of the day the rear doors remain open, and supervised by an attendant as seen here. At off peak times these doors remain closed and locked and passengers enter by the front doors and leave by the centre doors. NBfL is a hybrid powered vehicle built by Wrightbus, Northern Ireland.
