The Urbanite – 13 Points
Jack – 21 Points
Steve80 – 25 Points
Networker93 – 111 Points
Chris - 258 PointsFeedback Section for Correct Answers:
Question 2:
N159 – Steve80 – I have given you Two points because the N159 no longer exists. I did not count this as an incorrect answer because Route 159 was extended to Paddington Basin and made 24 Hour. N159 is now only used in the back office so therefore the N159 was withdrawn between New Addington – Streatham and extended to Paddington Basin, but numbered as 159 which is 24 Hour.
If you gave me the answer 159 you would have received 1 Point.
Question 5:
36 – The Urbanite – Good Choice because only 1 Route and 1 Operator could have been used which has effectively crossed the river. You could have even picked the 436 to Lewisham Station and then 321 to Foot Cray Tesco.
Question 9:
9827 on the N3 – The Urbanite – Good Choice as Tridents are no longer allocated to the N3.
Question 10:
108 Harris Bus – ETB – Chris – That was an excellent Choice!
Feedback Section for Incorrect Answers:
Question 2:
953 – Chris – Route 953 has not had any section withdrawn or extended anywhere.
Question 6: A Journey
259 Edmonton Green – Tottenham Police Station
476 Tottenham Police Station - Euston

149 Edmonton Green – Monument
133 Monument – Brixton
109 Brixton – Croydon Town Centre

Jack - You have not been increased to 50 Points because the 35 and 40 both join at London Bridge meaning you can get from Shoreditch – Dulwich Library making it a journey of Two Abellio London Operated Routes. Also 10 Points because every Route you have picked is operated by Abellio.
Chris – You had 5 different Routes operated by 5 different operators which did not form a journey.
Steve80 - You have not been increased to 50 Points because the N35, 344, N3 can be one journey, but however the 35 and 188 did not complete a sequence. Eg. N35 TCR – Liverpool Street, 344 Liverpool Street – Lambeth Road, N3 to Bromley North.
Question 7:
FW – FU – Fulwell - Networker93. If you used TF – Fulwell and renamed it that then It would have been correct.
Question 10:
323 – Chris - Route 323 Serves 3 Stations
Mile End Station
Star Lane DLR Station
Canning Town Station
T31 - Networker93 – Route T31 does not serve any rail or tube Station only London Tramlink.
Question 11:
313 - Chris - Routes 298, 313, 692 all Serve, Potters Bar Station
Question 12:
207 – Chris – Route 207 the Destinations are both two Words - White City – Hayes By-Pass
