Built in 1912 by the LGOC, Leyton garage was severely damaged in WW2 and reconstruction was not completed until 1959.
In 1947, it was the first garage to operate the postwar RT, which it did for 25 years. The half relief model is approximately 20" wide by 8" deep. An alternative unsigned label is included together with an East London Bus Group sign, to represent the moremodern period.
