RMLs back in service

I noticed RML2760 on the 15 heritage route this morning. I thought the
heritage routes were supposed only to be using re-engined RMs which
doesn't include RMLs. Or have I missed something?

RML2760 makes the occasional foray onto the 15, and RML2735 has been
known to escape from Westbourne Park onto the 9, but neither is that
common.

I thought it was mainly RMLs that got re-engined a few years ago. Or
is this a new kind of engine that has now gone into RMs?

Incidentally, I've noticed Routemasters turning up on DLR replacement
work, along with a hotchpotch of things.

Most of the time I should think they'd prefer the vestigial DLR
service, but in any case there are plenty of other buses in use.
