The roof was added to Turnpike Lane Bus Station in 1968 in readiness for the Wood Green 'Flat-Fare Routes W1-W6' Satellite scheme (commenced 07/09.1968). This was the first Flat-Fare scheme in London. The W3 is the only survivor of the original six routes.
In the bus station (from left to right) are two AEC Merlin type buses (MB) in service from 1968-75/6. Two Routemasters (RM), one with a very early body with non-opening front upper deck windows (built 1959/60), as well as a later version with opening windows. Notice also the position of the number plates on the RMs (not integrated into the radiator cover on the later post 1963 version).  As well as Dailmler Fleetline (DMS) in the background.
