Note: these histories are in process of collection, with fragments of information added from a variety of sources.
Any additional information is very welcome.
An article in London Bus Magazine volume 118 by Malcolm Papes must be the definitive work on the class, if you want real detail.
London Country by David Stewart, and the second edition with Laurie Akehurst as well, have been very useful.
