Here is my offering for May Deadline is 23:59 on Sunday May-20th
Q1 Name a London Underground station that is served by five or more TfL lines (LU, LO, DLR, XR) Q2 Name a single deck TfL route that has an official double deck allocation for school workings.
Q3 Name a TfL bus route that serves two [or more] FIXED bus stops that share the same name, in the same direction of travel, but are not the same stop.
Please state the route number, followed by the stop names, and the direction of travel. (Eg. Route 258 serves Grange Road in Watford & Grange Road in South Harrow, towards Watford AND South Harrow) Q4 Name a TfL bus route that runs inside of the pre-2009 Circle line, but with BOTH termini outside of it.
Q5 Name a station from the tube map that is only served by the Tube, Overground AND National Rail.
Q6 Name a TfL route that changes operator between 26-April 2018 & 20-May 2018.
Q7 Name a fleet code of an existing TfL Tower Transit bus.
Q8 Name an operational Metroline Travel garage.
Q9 Name any current TfL bus route that includes “E” in the route number.
Q10 Name a current TfL bus route that for at least part of its route, has an official/advertised Express or Limited Stop section.
Usual rules & scoring system applies 20 points for an incorrect answer Happy to answer any queries PM me all answers. Any answers posted here will be deleted, and become invalid for the round
Good luck!!
EDIT Q3: fixed bus stops only Q4: bus must have both termini outside the pre-2009 Circle (bottle) line, and not terminating at a Circle line station

A clarificatory question re Q3 Does the duplicated stop name have to be repeated in full on a route or can the name be repeated in part at a subsequent stop? Some stops have common names but with a suffix - would that be a valid answer? A clarificatory question re Q4. Does the route that traverses "the old Circle Line area" have to have both terminals outside the area or just one? A clarificatory question re Q5 Does the station in question have to be physically one single station or can it be different stations that share a common name? PSQ3 - arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

I’m confused by the wording of Q4. I’m not sure by what you mean by “that runs inside of the pre-2009 Circle line, but terminates outside of it.”

As for Question 3, can one of those stops be a Hail and Ride but don't contain "Hail and Ride" on the stop name and other is a fixed stop or does both stops have to be a fixed stop?

I’m pretty sure it’s a generalisation from when I’ve participated in these quizzes.

PSQ3 - arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Q3 Yes. Examples could be: Stop 1 xxx/iii Stop 2 iii/aaa OR Stop 1 xxx/aaa Stop 2 xxx/iii
But not Edgware station & Edgware bus station
Does that make more sense?
Q4 Both terminals outside of the Circle Line.
Q5 Can be more than one station name, provided they are linked with the interchange symbol on the Tube Map.

As for Question 3, can one of those stops be a Hail and Ride but don't contain "Hail and Ride" on the stop name and other is a fixed stop or does both stops have to be a fixed stop? For the purposes of this I will say fixed stops only, no Hail & Rides.
