Perhaps I'm wrong but I remember/thought the S stood for Split-entry, though it might be an urban myth, but when the self service machines were removed I seem to remember them becoming DM without the S.
With most london buses the first letter tended to indicate main model, a second letter describing the body, and a third letter describing variant. eg DRL = dennis Dart, Reeves-burgess body, Lengthened. DW = dennis Dart, Wright body. LA = dennis Lance, Alexander body LV = dennis Lance, Verde body.
Though the letters may be reversed, eg
VN = Volvo, Northern counties body double decker NV = Volvo, Northern counties single decker 82.33.140.88 ( talk) 09:45, 1 December 2022 (UTC)
