Like the Barkingside bus routes, I have figured out why perhaps why some of the routes have been designated their colours: Pink 90: I actually found this really difficult: the best I could come up with is that it goes past a restaurant called 'Pink City' in Hayes Town Centre. Light Green 140: In Harrow Weald, the last stop is named Long Elmes. Elm trees are green in colour. Dark Green 195: It serves The Green in Southall and also serves Southall and Hayes & Harlington Stations with dark green GWR trains. Orange 350: I found this exceptionally difficult. The best I could come up with is that when the 350 goes through Stockley Park, it goes past Glaxo Smith Kline which has an orange logo. Burgundy 427: I really couldn't find anything that correlates with the 427 and Burgundy. Yellow 607: The route serves Shepherd's Bush Market Station for the Circle line, also yellow in colour. Dark Blue A10: The route serves Uxbridge Station for the Piccadilly line, also dark blue in colour. Medium Blue E6: The route (alongside the rest of the routes) serves Hayes & Harlington Station for TfL Rail, also blue in colour. Orange H98: I really couldn't find anything that correlates with the H98 and Orange again. Light Blue U4: This route serves many water attractions including: Stockley Road Lake, The Grand Union Canal, Lake Farm Country Park, River Pinn and Fray's River Purple U5: The route serves Uxbridge Station for the Metropolitan line, also purple in colour. Yellow U7: I really couldn't find anything that correlates with the U7 and Orange again.

The U5 colour is actually very similar to the Elizabeth line purple (which it will serve at Hayes & Harlington and West Drayton), while the 427 colour is very similar to the Metropolitan line purple (which it serves at Uxbridge)

I’ve got a good one What single deck route has had the highest individual yearly figure for passenger ridership? (of all recorded years since 2010 that can be found on the spreadsheet. And I’ll give you a clue, the biggest yearly patronage entry ever for a SD route was actually when the old methodology was being used, despite the new one ‘bumping up’ numbers for most routes)

These days it is in 3rd place with the 235 and 72 ahead of it.

I don't know whether this is the right place for this, but I understand that CERN in Switzerland, the home of the Hadron Collider, is also host to a Routemaster, RML 2520. From a radio chat show I heard earlier in the week, if one of the scientists working at CERN considers they've made an important discovery they hop on board and ring the bell, which is a signal for other boffins to come rushing on board to hear all. Maybe someone can confirm/deny this. I'd love to think it's true. My 'understanding' of physics was rewarded by the Oxford and Cambridge Board at O Level with a then record low mark, apparently!

Routes 292 and 293 are the only pair of successive TfL route numbers to both leave Greater London and both have the same parent operator.
