As do the N38, 133, 507, 521. I guess the Waterloo stands for 381 and 76 rule them out? A few more additions 81, 240, 260, n16 |

I was thinking of routes which start and end at bus stations and I came up with a list which of routes: 48, 69, 97, 102, 111, 149, 154, 156, 157, 181, 203, 210, 211, 216, 217, 221, 257, 260, 266, 285, 340, 419 and X26. Without muddying the waters too much on what is and isn't bus station, let's create a list of routes that both start and end at bus stations What do you define as a 'bus station'? Because there are certain places I wouldn't count, such as the County Hall stand for the 341/381 |

The N133 does as well According to Wikipedia - "A bus station is a structure where city or intercity buses stop to pick up and drop off passengers. While the term bus depot also refers to a bus station, it can also refer to a bus garage. A bus station is larger than a bus stop, which is usually simply a place on the roadside, where buses can stop. It may be intended as a terminal station for a number of routes, or as a transfer station where the routes continue. Bus station platforms may be assigned to fixed bus lines, or variable in combination with a dynamic passenger information system." If the above is accepted would the 507 be included? as the Waterloo Cab Road would not be classed as a bus station. |

The 142, 222, 258, 483, 607, A10 and U3. The bus stand in Uxbridge isn’t really a bus station, neither is the Ealing Hospital stand one either. Yes Uxbridge and Ealing Hospitals are both classed as Bus Stations. Where do you get this information from? |

Where do you get this information from? I genuinely don’t think Uxbridge is one, especially with the description given a few posts above. Uxbridge is just a group of stops that are located outside a bus garage, the way the stops are laid out leads me to think instantly that it’s more of a massive interchange between buses and/or the tube that’s situated on a road. I definitely see how you can interpret it as a bus station however The Ealing Hospital terminus could be considered as a bus station however, the way the bays for the bus stops are laid out does give it the perfect layout for it. |

It has a information help desk, it’s looked after by TfL and Uxbridge is classed as a Bus Station. |

405 and 433 both terminate at bus stations on both ends, as well as the 314 I think

329 (Making the contentious claim that Enfield Little Park Gardens is a bus station)
Edit: If one says it is, that would also add the 192 and 317.

Wouldn’t really consider Enfield Little Park Gardens to be a bus station tbh, compare that to bus stations like at Walthamstow Central and Canning Town for example. |

I don't think any terminus that neither allows passengers to board or alight there can be described as a bus station: preferably they should allow both. Where does Edgware fall into that then? |

Putney Heath, Green Man is alighting only, seems more a stand than a bus station as first stop is on the public road opposite the stands  I forgot about the pickup point, and I used to drive it too (many moons back mind you). lol |
