  In the 70s, there were some Routemasters in Sentosa. I managed to sit in one of them. They were private plates "SQ" and "SN" plates. Whatever happened to them...

  What about the DDs in Malaysia in the 1950s/1960s?

  There was a RMT used as the triple-decker Knight Bus in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban last year.
  
  Adding on, we might see it again in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix in 2007.

  Reminds me of SBS9611D (bus rego). The bus is a 'fake' knight bus, showcased in Singapore to advertise Harry Potter 3.

  Hmm... the rego of the bus, not the username.
