Does anyone know what routes we can expecting to be running? How can any one really knows until operators see how many drivers turn up in the morning. Meanwhile Twitter users are pretty miffed.

So are you saying that London bus drivers are relatively well paid because that is not what they are saying.

So are you saying that London bus drivers are relatively well paid because that is not what they are saying. I'm saying that few PCV roles within London, i.e minibus/coach work pay as much as the TfL contractor operators. I made no comment on whether or not London bus drivers are well paid.

I'll definitely be working tomorrow - depending on how many buses CT run we might have to run 2 CAs per bus.

I hope there are at least a FEW buses running on the 466. Otherwise, I'm gonna have to get the 409 to Caterham Station and take the train, which i normally do on a Friday

Unscientific, I know, but on the one bus I caught today (an E400 non-hybrid on route 472), the driver said that support for the strike at PD was 'solid'. Which suggests little or nothing from there tomorrow, but we'll see.
Me, I'm lucky insofar that I am train-reliant rather than bus-reliant tomorrow, and the one journey that I would usually do by bus on Tuesdays (eastbound from Plumstead on either a 422 or 99 to the West Heath area) is easily walkable.

I asked the driver on the 197 today, one of the stalwarts of TC (I remember him driving the route as the 312) if they were working tomorrow and he had no idea.
As for me tomorrow, it'll be my two feet and possibly a train.

A quick random scan of several night routes shows buses in service and heading into and out of town. Obviously not a firm indication of anything in particular but there are buses running when you might have expected them not to.
