Route 13 Heritage Bus Day

Saturday 13th June 10:00am until 5:00pm

Ride free on old buses in service on London bus route 213 between Kingston and Sutton ~ 13th June 2026!

Bus route 213 has been running between Kingston and Sutton since 1921 – that’s 105 years – serving Norbiton Station, Coombe Lane, Traps Lane, New Malden, Worcester Park, North Cheam and Cheam .

On Saturday 13th June 2026 between 1000 and 1700, the London Bus Museum will be running free heritage buses dating from the 1950s to 1970s alongside the normal daily service on route 213.

Open-platform buses with real conductors will run between Kingston and Sutton Garage. Buses serve all route 213 bus stops - no need to book, just turn up at a route 213 bus stop and put out your hand!

Buses being used will mostly be the iconic Routemaster, dating from the late 1950s and 1960s, and their predecessor the RT-type, which in the 1950s formed the largest standardised bus fleet in the world, together with some special buses. Some buses are from the Museum’s collection, others provided by other owners. And it’s all free!
