TfL have just tweeted this about the upcoming 10th anniversary of I-Bus. One thing that is very telling about the footage is how old some of it is - lots of types on routes that no longer run on them!! Also the reference to the T31 and T32 routes.   Still it's good that it still seems to work reasonably well - let's hope the replacement system works and lasts as well. |

I guess this is the full roll out anniversary. IIRC the program started in 2008. |

I guess this is the full roll out anniversary. IIRC the program started in 2008. I still remember that morning in 2008 when I got the 123 to work and the bus had working I-Bus. It was revolutionary. I also remember the ludicrous excitement I had when someone leaked the website and codes for being able to check the arrivals at any bus stop. IIRC it was supposed to be an internal TfL staff thing for a while but it reached the public domain very quickly. I think TfL were overwhelmed with the volume of searches once the website details became widely known. The rest, really, is history. |

Would an appropriate 10th birthday present be to reinstate the 10 route? lol

Would an appropriate 10th birthday present be to reinstate the 10 route? lol wishful thinking. Why not have the 10 run back from Wanstead to Victoria again. |
