413 Morden Stn to Sutton S1 Sutton to Banstead 318 Banstead to Tattenham Corner 480 Tattenham Corner to Epsom 467 Epsom to Chessington South 71 Chessington South to Surbiton
Lovely Scania on the 480 and nice ride on a MPD on the 318.
Thought the OM on the S1 was falling apart a bit. Hopefully these will get replaced.
Superb MCL on the 413.
Stunning scenery . If on the 318 keep an eye to your right towards Epsom as it goes through Nork. Some glimpses of London available on a clear day. Notwithstanding the vista afforded at Epsom Downs.

The OM's have already been retained on the current contract as they're Euro VI without any need for upgrades - I believe the contract started last year. Whilst I'm here, if you haven't done it yet, the 21 is a lovely route and is usually MPD allocated

District to Barking London Overground to Blackhorse Road Victoria to Finsbury Park Great Northern to London Kings Cross Metropolitan to Liverpool Street Greater Anglia to Stratford DLR to Beckton 173 to Home
I caught a 710 on the GOBLIN and they are AMAZING. The USB charging is quite quick and the wifi works perfectly. I also took advantage of the direct services running from Stratford Intl-Beckton because ComicCon was on today

Last Thursday 13 June:
275, Woodford > Barkingside; 10122 - business as usual up Tomswood Hill (BAU) 167, Barkingside > Gants Hill; 36289 - a normal E200 curtailed to Gants Hill, fairly speedy 296, Gants Hill > Little Heath; 36601 - great 2015 E200MMC, better than the usual NS E200s in my opinion EL3, Little Heath > Goodmayes; LT932 - never enjoyed having to go through King George V and backtrack out, but it has its purposes 364, Goodmayes > Martins Corner; SOE23 - great Esteem, catching at last in East London. Looking forward to the new batch nonetheless 145, Martins Corner > Dagenham Heathway; 19767 - a classic 197** E400, but not much thrash unlike some of its counterparts
District Line to Barking C2C to Fenchurch Street
RV1, Tower Gateway > London Bridge; WSH62993 - horrendous traffic on the gyratory system at Tower Gateway, but comfy seats on this pulsar, and smooth journey all the way 343, London Bridge > Elephant & Castle; EH200 - BAU 468, Elephant & Castle > Herne Hill; HV297 - first time catching it since its B7TL GAL days - nimble on the hills after Camberwell, overtaking a couple LTs on the 68 taking ages to board/deboard 3, Herne Hill > Crystal Palace; LT695 - very speedy through Croxted Lane. First time on this road and really took me aback, lovely journey when sat on the top deck at the front 227, Crystal Palace > Bromley High Street; 23105 - the real reason I did this journey. This was the 4th SLN Citaro I've caught since November 18 and once again, had a jerky gear box into second gear. Absolutely fantastic, and just as much of a beast as 23101 and 23108. Real shame to see them go. But I look forward to trying out the Streetlites when on the route
208, Bromley High Street > Lewisham; 10154 - were not too far behind a 320, so almost non-stop at 1pm all the way up to Catford! Looking forward to these being on the 128 by end of the year! 122, Lewisham > Woolwich Arsenal; 12292 - BAU on an E400H with plenty of whooshing down to Eltham Green DLR and Tube home

Yesterday night / early this morning:
188 (WHV193, LF67EYD): Home - Elephant & Castle, London Road
363 (EH64, YX66WHF): Elephant & Castle, London Road - Crystal Palace
227 (23110, LX12DLF): Crystal Palace - Bromley North Station
- Had to get one last ride on these Citaros as the 227 won’t really be the same from today onwards PERIOD. A great, fast ride this was which lasted 23 minutes and the driver was flooring it pretty much throughout the journey. A good luck to Go-Ahead as they commence operating the route later on.
N3 (LT686, LTZ1686): Bromley North Station - Oxford Circus
453 (LT859, LTZ1859): Oxford Circus - Deptford High Street
Walked home
