123 - DW Rail DLR 474 - PVL96 in remarkably good nick 474 - WVL Mk2 Free Ferry. First time on this across the Thames 161 - Omnidekka 124 - E20D 284 - E20D 21 - WVL Mk2 344 - E40D Rail W11 - E20D
More fire station hunting north and south of the Thames.
Several training buses spotted from Stagecoach, London Central and London General (the former East Thames red and white PVL). Also a red dual door Dart / Pointer on training duties in the queue to use the Free Ferry across to North Woolwich. No idea who the bus belonged to as no fleetnames / numbers were evident.
Daft question - the 284 I was on dodged round the back of Lewisham High Street via Molesworth St and didn't serve the Lewisham Centre stops. Any idea why? I-Bus also got its knickers in a twist and started listing several stops, didn't announce Lewisham Fire Station and then said it was on diversion. It also doesn't show up as serving the Fire Station and Lewisham Centre on the web although others routes are running that way! TfL are not showing any diversions for the 284 on Live Travel News.

Traffic lights at Lewis Grove are on manual control causing mayhem Ah that explains why there was such a massive jam of traffic going south / east past the Police Station. I thought it was caused by an ambulance that was in attendance when I was there.

Regarding "Lewisham Fire Station" These three bus stops were previously named "Ladywell Leisure Centre" which closed Last year replaced by Glass Mill Leisure Centre by Lewisham Station, the multi coloured building. You may have noticed the building boarded up as it is about to be demolished as Ladywell & it's staff were transferred to Glass Mill. The iBus Screen was changed about a month ago to Lewisham Fire Station, it will not announce it as it has not yet been recorded by the iBus Lady.

Just your average morning: 134 to Warren St (VW1286) - not too busy. An average 134 ride, i.e. very good service. 10 to Royal Albert Hall (SP144) Not so average afternoon... 74 from Gloucester Rd to Baker Street (One of the old VWLs) - I always seem to wait a long time for them - this time 11 minutes. But I'm not complaining... 27 to Camden Town (SP149) Scania OmniCity 134 to home (VW1296) Just your average 134 ride home... I let the first one pass as it was quite full, and the next one wasn't too full (I got the front seat )
