Route Master London Bus Ceramic Money Box.
Before 1907, buses were painted in different colours to signify their route.
Due to fierce competition between bus companies, London General Omnibus Company (LGOC) – which became the biggest bus operator in the capital – painted their fleet of buses red in order to stand out from the competition.
After encouragement from the Metropolitan Police they also introduced numbers on the buses to signify different routes.
