The 232 has had the odd TA/TAL/TP in the past and when the H14 was under Metroline the odd TA/TPL appeared from time to time. The odd VN/VNL have appeared on the 487. Don't the 108 and 463 have a double deck working The 108 has scheduled workings when there's an event on at the O2 and the 463 has a school double deck journey. Thanks for the correction.

Out of curiosity which low bridge is now preventing double deckers on the D8?

Both 308 and D8 can take DDs, they used to use them during the Olympic time last year. The D8 was diverted to Stratford Bus Station during the Olympics, It cannot take Double deckers right now due to the low bridge. There is no low bridge along the D8, if it's being referred to the one along Warton Road, then that's clear for double deckers. The N205 goes along it

Route 411 can take double deckers. Indeed, under London United for a time, it ran using M's & Volvo Olympian VA's

The 368 had deckers on now and then during its first time with blue triangle 2001- 2006. And then also on its last day with first in June.

There is a scheduled double decker working on the 423, it's the 2209 ex Terminal 5. This journey is double deck due to high numbers of airport workers. It works off the 482.

Also, Routes 72 (only between Hammersmith and East Acton), 126, 246, 375, W13 can all take DDs

The W13 does indeed have a scheduled school decker journey, supposed to be worked by EO1.

Oh that's odd, I saw a flickr pic of a Metrobus OmniDekka blinded for 126 at Bromley North and TL & TB Enviro400s have blinds for 246.

Oh that's odd, I saw a flickr pic of a Metrobus OmniDekka blinded for 126 at Bromley North and TL & TB Enviro400s have blinds for 246. All Metrobus Omnidekkas have blinds for every route at the garage they're allocated to. MB Omnidekkas have routes like 138, 146, 181, 284, 336, 367, B14 plus the R routes as well as the normal routes whilst C Omnidekkas have the 130, 359 as well as the normal routes. No idea why the Enviro 400's have blinds for the 246 unless the trees have been cut - that said, I've not heard or seen one out on the route. Metrobus Omnidekkas were low enough to bypass the trees as they are around the 13'10'' mark.

I thought that the double deck workings on the 108 operate every night, irrespective of events at the Dome. The TfL view was that it was easier to run them every night as the Dome attracts such large numbers.
