dsl ◊ 2016-03-12 17:30	Is there any difference between LT and Renown LT??
johnfromstaffs ◊ 2016-03-12 18:21	The same as between RT and Regent RT. Link to "commons.m.wikimedia.org" Regal Regent Renown Reliance were AEC chassis names, the remainder of the nomenclature being either LGOC/London Transport class names, or in the case of provincial operators, coachbuilder's names and maybe body titles. To make things more complex, the chassis went through various mark numbers as well, hence "AEC Regent III RT Park Royal" or whatever. Like the chassis, the coachwork went through evolutions, with the addition of roofs, inside staircases, different widths and lengths as legislation changed. Like all bespoke vehicles, there is no simple yes or no to any questions of this type. -- Last edit: 2016-03-12 20:03:08
SteveA ◊ 2016-03-12 20:05	AEC recycled names over the years, so that the Regent name that was first seen at the end of the 1920s could still be seen in production as late as 1968, although there was very little resemblance between the original Regent and a late model Regent mark V. Likewise with the Regal, although it didn't survive as long. The Reliance also had its origins at the end of the 1920s, but it disappeared from production fairly quickly, only reappearing in the 1950s. The Renown was originally a three axle chassis built in both single deck and double deck form (London had both), but in the 1960s the name was applied to a lowheight double decker. London Transport had one as a demonstrator.
