In the 1930s, STL buses were used on this route which ran from Highgate to Elmers End.[2]

The AEC Routemaster buses which operated route 137 since 1 November 1964 were replaced by one-person operated Wright Pulsar Gemini bodied DAF DB250s on 10 July 2004, ending a remarkable forty years of service[3]

New Routemasters were introduced on 6 December 2014. The rear platform remains closed at all times except for when the bus is at bus stops.[4]

On 15 July 2017 route 137 was permanently curtailed to Marble Arch and no longer serves Oxford Street.[citation needed]
