Most operators have now been released with Coaches Excetera of Croydon having picked up quite a bit of working including the 29 (Newidgate to Dorking requiring 1 bus), 516 (Epsom to Dorking requiring 2 buses) and Sunday services on the 32 (Dorking to Guildford) and 479 (Epsom to Bookham). My guess is the buses used on the 29 and 516 during the week will then be used on Sundays on the 32 and 479.

Explains why Coaches Excetera have been busy buying some secondhand London buses.
