City Bound

(Spectator Short Films documentary, 1941)

Fascinating look at the daily commute into London from the suburbs. Although it was filmed in 1941, the war doesn't really feature. Most of the buses seen are London Transport AEC Regent STLs.
First seen are two STLs in wartime livery, the first STL1928 (DLU287):
