About Berkshire’s Big Red Bus Company and our fleet of buses

Berkshire’s Big Red Bus Company, currently has some beautiful classic 1960’s buses in our fleet. All of our vehicles are in fantastic condition showing the beauty and class of the 1960’s era.

Currently we have two of the historic and iconic London Routemaster buses, “Phineas” & “Rocky”, plus a very special open top double decker “Sir Martin”..

We are very proud of our fleet and I hope you will enjoy your time on them as much as we enjoy maintaining them and presenting them ready for service.
