Before being withdrawn 19000 on the 30 i know its with metroline but would be fitting as it was new to the route when stagecoach had it Would be nice if Metroline and TfL allowed it to do even 1 single rounder on July 7th every year And via Tavistock Square from Marble Arch it would do the same routing as 17758 did on that faithful day

HV certainly not sure about a HA I do have a feeeling that the HAs won't be blinded but I think the HVs probably are as they have N137 on the blinds but happy to be corrected.

Not London, but one I am sure Zubin will appreciate, but this weekend would like to see an Enviro 400 on the 503 Halifax-Huddersfield route now Halifax have a handful of the type, make a change from the B7TLs I am used to seeing .... even the B9TLs are an improvement on those!

And via Tavistock Square from Marble Arch it would do the same routing as 17758 did on that faithful day That day should never be forgotten but I don't think putting a bus back on the route where the tragedy happened is a good idea. Certainly not diverted via Tavistock Square, which would be ghoulish.

Although it was tragic, life goes on. People move on. A bus is a piece of machinery, it’s used to transport people from point A to B. It’s a part of a business after all. Buses have served Tavistock Square daily, even after 7/7. Same thing with the tube, thousands of tubes have past the various accident sites from 7/7 daily. You mean to tell me TfL should stop running the whole network because something tragic happened there years ago? It may seem a little cold, but in reality in order to progress in life, you can’t dwell on the bad things from the past.

In New York City the subway train that was damaged during the 9/11 atrocities was made to be the first to enter service into the new World Trade Centre Station.

I think it's only a few enthusiasts who get worked up about 19000, the real 7/7 memorial is in Hyde Park. The most telling factor to me is that even when 19000 could have worked on the 30 most of the time it was on other routes, at the end of the day it's just a bus. I won't be sorry to see it withdrawn just so that we don't have to have all this waffle everytime it's mentioned, forgive me being blunt but I've never been one for over sentimentality. I actually have another reason to remember July 7th 2005, a friend of mine lost his life to cancer that day at a ridiculously young age and he would readily acknowledge that life goes on.

I think you're completely missing my point I never suggested stopping a service, I just don't see the point in it if the service doesn't go there what purpose is is serving?
