The last JMT double decker buses leave the island by boat in 1971. At the time they left they were said to be headed for a new life in Hong Kong, but it is now believed that few, if any, made it that far. One or more was lost overboard during the passage to England and most of them remained on British soil, to eventually be scrapped. It is thought that some may have eventually been exported to Singapore
