Would that be inside knowledge? There was never any source to state it was not happening as usual time passes and people dream of things inside there head... Indeed. But my point is there was no financial crisis at the time the changes were planned. Does not mean it requires speculation the 168 & 271 are already proposed for withdrawal. What is that telling you, why would TFL abandon plans to those changes knowing the Crossrail will be starting soon. Well I hope you're right because a direct bus from where I live to Erith will be jolly useful for me! I guess we'll find out in due course.

As things stand I think there are too many buses running on the 180. I often see them running together.
The route is not helped by the cycle lanes in Woolwich Road, Charlton. There is now only a very narrow stretch with one lane in each direction.
On Friday a van was involved in an accident and blocked the road and then a 180 broke down at the crazy floating bus stop after the driver lowered the front of the bus to allow a lady to get her large shopping trolley onto the bus.

Additional buses will be running on route 25 between Ilford, Hainault Street and Stratford Bus Station on Saturday 19 and Sunday 20 February between the hours of 1200 and 1900. This is to provide extra capacity during the suspension of TfL Rail services for engineering works.
Is it likely we will just see BW vehicles for these extras or will we see possibly some other Stagecoach garages do some?

The last few times that 25U extras ran with Stagecoach it only used BW buses using the buses from the weekday PVR as the Saturday PVR across all BW routes is lower than it is on a weekday.

I believe BW probably have a generous amount of spares due to the difference Central London routes generally have between weekend and weekday PVRs. It's probably why the 238 extras on Saturdays run out of BW as opposed to WH.

Yes you are right they will be happening. I've got a feeling that some of the Elizabeth line changes will fall victim to TfL's fiscal crisis. I really can't see the 180 Erith extension happening, The 129 180 469 472 & B11 changes will be happening at some point this year.

Saw 10347 on route 498 with one of the interior notices for covid sticker used to paste down the emergency engine stop flap on the offside rear. Looks a bit stupid, would have made more sense to use duct tape
