English: Northern 2105 (ex-3089) (reg. EUP 405B) was one of the was one of the Northern Routemasters (RMFs). It entered service in the company's allover red 'crimson lake' livery, relieved by a thin cream band, with 'Northern' fleetnames in gold and the painted advertising slogan of Shop at Binns applied. In January 1975, as part of a fleet wide renumbering, the RMFs became 3069-3118 and 3129 (the prototype), thus 2105 became 3089. By 1975, 2105 along with the rest of the Northern fleet had been repainted into the standard poppy red livery of the National Bus Company, with NBC style white fleetnames. Withdrawal of the RMFs began in 1977 and had been completed by the end of 1980, 2105 being withdrawn during 1980. It was sold directly into preservation with a Newcastle based individual, who repainted it into its original Northern livery. It has since appeared at many rallies and events.
