Just for a bit of fun, which route or routes traverse the most number of London Boroughs. The long ones are the obvious candidates such as 25 or 123, but not necessarily. A route might skim a number of boroughs without being particularly long. Is it even possible to work out which route touches the greatest number? One for the real enthusiasts here. Good luck!

243: - Wood Green (Haringey), crosses into Hackney borough at Stamford Hill; into Islington at Old Street, across into Camden borough at Bloomsbury, into Westminster City at Aldwych (Somerset House), across Waterloo Bridge into Southwark borough (IMAX roundabout) then terminates in Waterloo Station  Hot on the heels of that would be the 63 - Kings Cross (Islington), around into St Pancras (Camden) back down into Farringdon (Islington), into Ludgate Circus (City of London) Across Blackfriars Bridge into Southwark. Not sure if Honor Oak is Lewisham or Southwark at the terminus of Forest Hill Tavern   |

It’s got to be the X26. It goes though Croydon, Sutton, Kingston, Richmond, Hounslow and Hillingdon. That’s a total of 6.

I think the winner as already mentioned is likely to be the X26.
Some honourable mentions which come to my head
86: Newham, Redbridge, Barking&Dag, Havering
25: City of London, Tower Hamlets, Newham, Redbridge
425: Redbridge, Newham, Tower Hamlets, Hackney

only 3 each.
