Summary edit

Description
English: London Central bus T991 (reg. A991 SYE), pictured on Stanstead Road (part of the A205 South Circular) in Forest Hill, operating London Buses route 171 to Holborn station. Facing west, it's waiting to turn right into Brockley Rise (the B218) to head north into central London.

The 1,051st production Titan, it's from the later batch built at Leyland's expanded factory in the Lillyhall Industrial Estate in Workington (earlier ones were built by British Leyland subsidiary Park Royal Vehicles in Park Royal, London). As with the vast majority of production, it was delivered new to London Transport as part of the dual-door T-class, allocated fleet number T991.

It's picture here in the post-privatisation livery of Go-Ahead subsidiary London Central. By 2002 its regular service days were over and it was allocated to training duties, working out of Camberwell garage (code Q).

It's subsequent history after that is unclear, with reports suggesting it passed to London tour operator The Big Bus Company in 2003, who converted it to an open top bus, also removing the centre door, although it's possibly been sent to the company's operation in Dubai without ever having been used in London.
