MostlyBuses - Invidious

London bus pictures (256):
1-2) Two New Routemasters with two dull, white ad wraps - no creativity at all!
3) A StreetLite on the 410 at Davidson Road, near Croydon.
4) An unallocated Enviro400 City EV on the 45 around Streatham Common. These electric strays are very fun.
5) A curtailment on the 493. This was a very, VERY familiar sight under GoAhead but since TUK took over most buses manage to complete full journeys without a curtailment, mainly thanks to generous stand time in Richmond.
6) Speaking of full journeys, here's an MMC on the 234, taken at Archway after I rode this bus on an end to end from Barnet.
7) A New Routemaster on the 148 at Dorchester Hotel.
8) A New Routemaster on the 38 picking up passengers at Holborn Station.
9) An out of service Enviro400 Hybrid.

Routes featured:
390 - Archway to Victoria
137 - Marble Arch to Streatham Hill, Telford Avenue
410 - Crystal Palace to Wallington
45 - Camberwell Green to Morden
493 - Tooting, St. George's Hospital to Richmond

London bus pictures (254):
1) A StreetDeck Electroliner on the 401 somewhere in Thamesmead.
2) An Enviro400 on the 231 around Enfield Town.
3) A broken down Electroliner causing traffic in Enfield. This was taken during the recent heatwave which many electrics seem to be unable to cope with.
4) An Enviro400 MMC hybrid on the 14 at Piccadilly Circus.
5) An Enviro400 City EV on the 157 at Morden Station beginning a lengthy journey towards Crystal Palace.

9-10) An Enviro200EV on the 152 at Runnymede, Colliers Wood and Walton Avenue, New Malden. I never appreciated how useful the 152 is until recently, it's a really handy route, especially since it avoids Wimbledon and runs direct between Raynes Park and Colliers Wood.

Pictures:

NEW VIDEO - The third instalment of London Bus News!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fIqPG...
New route 10 and changes to the 19 & 38 explained:
https://youtu.be/rsdnusf2AmI?is=Ejot4...

1) An uncommon double deck EvoSeti on the 355 at its stand around Three Kings Pond, Mitcham. This bus subbed on for a StreetLite, excellent. Come to think of it, this stand is probably one of the most scenic in London.
2) An Enviro200 MMC heading out of Fulwell (FW) garage.
3) The second uncommon working in this post, and it's also in Mitcham! Refurbished Enviro200EV SEe67 on route 152. This route is usually fully allocated 10.2m 73 plate future spec SEes with the occasional 10.8m 23 plate or diesel stray, and for whatever reason LJ67 plate SEes are pretty rare. This bus was new to route 153 in 2017 and was fitted with LED displays upon refurbishment 2 years ago.
4) A New Routemaster on the 137 at Ebury Bridge Road heading towards Marble Arch.
5) An MCV EvoSeti on the 44 around Battersea Park.
6) A Volvo BZL on the 341 at Sadlers Wells Theatre.
7) A New Routemaster on the 17 crossing Theobalds Road near Chancery Lane.
8) An Enviro400 MMC hybrid on the 74 at Victoria & Albert Museum.
9) Wow, looks like the 69 has got a huge extension westwards! A Routemaster at the Victoria & Albert Museum.
10) New videos coming this weekend 👀
Saturday's video has been filmed and is currently being edited while Sunday's video may have to be postponed until later.

Routes featured:
355 - Brixton to Mitcham
152 - Pollards Hill to New Malden, Fountain Roundabout
137 - Marble Arch to Clapham Park

The 250 almost fully converted to electrics, meaningless Enviro400s are now rare on this route. For a nearly 40 minute tribute to these buses, watch this video:
https://youtu.be/gJ2E-ap64iE?is=k_q4D...

Pictures:
1-2) A sight that will very soon be part of history - T139 on the 250 at its first stop in West Croydon
3-4) An Enviro400 City EV on the 353 with mismatching seats - both ex-First moquette and an ieTram headrest!
5) T136 seen at West Croydon Bus Station after finishing a journey from Brixton.
6) A New Routemaster on the 59 at its first stop at Clapham Park, Atkins Road.
7-8) T135 on the 250 around Streatham Hill. Now that this route has gone fully electric this whole area has no more diesel double deckers.
9) A 109 and 250 at Thornton Heath Pond.
10) An MCV EvoSeti on the 37 at Wandsworth Town Hall.

Routes featured:
