3267 remained with the RATP until 1970 although it had been intended to withdraw all rear platform buses by 1960. Rear platform buses were normal and still built until the use of conductors was phased out. Some later designs for driver only operation retained an open rear platform for smokers but access was from the main part of the bus, not the street.
This bus carries an old style Hampshire registration. Paris buses carried their fleet number instead of a licence plate unless they were liable to be used on routes operatiing beyond the boundary of the capital. The fleet numbers are re-used on new vehicles. There is a current 3267 dating from 2008 which does carry a registration (491 REE 75) allocated to the Bords de Marne depot for route 320.
 
STCRP = Société des Transports en Commun de la Région Parisienne (until 1948).
RATP = Régie Autonome des Transports Parisiens (from 1948).
