#15 Bus Still running?

From our travel book, it sounded like the #15 double-decker bus is a good one to take to see the sites. I've heard some of the double-deckers are being retired though. Is the #15 still running?

If you are speaking of the one in London, I just rode it in April and it was still double-decker.

Yes and it's still a doubledecker (at least the ones I've taken). Just not an old Routemaster.

Or the one in Edinburgh ? If so, yes.

It's the old two-man operated Routemaster buses that have been retired. Other, one-man operated double deckers are still running, so you can still ride on No 15 bus. Transport for London is actually running some refurbished Routemaster buses on No 15 at certain times of the day. See http://www.tfl.gov.uk/buses/ini-heritage-buses.asp
