RM 2217, RMC1464 (our open topper) and RML 2360 (the Italian Job)

RM 2217 and RMC 1464 will be giving pre- ticketed passengers a short tour of London, accompanied by some Song leaders. All the passengers will have to learn the song ‘A transport of Delight’ and on their return to Tate Britain sing the song on the lawn of the Tate.

RML 2360 will provide a static display outside the gallery and visitors will be able to view a Sing London Video and a DVD of the Heritage Fleet in action.

None of the fleet will be involved on the 7th July, however a choir formed by Arriva staff will be singing to paintings in the National Gallery in the afternoon. From the 1st of July, some background information as a pod cast can be downloaded either from iTunes, or from the NG website at www.nationalgallery.org.uk.

On the 8th July the Sing London festival finale day, RMC 1464 will be conducting a Magical mystery tour from Camden to the South Bank. The tour starts at 12.00 in Camden near The Abbey Studios and will then wind its way through London to arrive at the South bank at around 15.00.

The bus will be carrying The Institute of Contemporary music performers and will stop at various sites en route to perform to the public. So look out for the singing buses and don’t forget to sing along with Sing London and the Arriva Heritage Fleet.
