[Source: London Evening Standard] When German-born photographer Ralf Obergfell learned the Routemaster bus was to be axed, he decided he must chronicle its final days.

Mr Obergfell, 37, said: “I had been attracted to the Routemaster ever since I saw it on television at my parents’ house when I was growing up in Germany. “There was the design of the bus, the rounded curves and the chrome, and the fact there was an open platform and conductor - it was really unusual.
