Yeah, that why I'm no longer to look at LOTS anymore. It gone downhill now. I look it up at here and Londonbusroutes plus of course TfL website too. They are only human at of the day and we can all make mistakes. Both errors were corrected within a few hours. Londonbusroutes and TfL are also guilty of making mistakes. LOTS have been making small changes in recent TLB issues which makes things easier to read especially the transfers and tender awards. However surely there should be some level of proofreading? It happening once fair enough, but twice in two days really should ring an alarm bell somewhere. |

ES87 and ES89 has arrive at TH A few of this batch has been at [DX] for weeks gathering dust I checked ES89 blinds, surprisingly no TH routes apart from 198 and it also has Norwood routes 😂 including 196 and 202 |

Menu before selecting route, gives you chance to select garage. Also be just a single configuration file to change control. |

Or perhaps whoever programmed it thought the ESs were staying at N |

I thought you can get all the correct destinations like you can on other buses with LED blinds? |

You can get what the display is programmed for. Seemingly from what cybermike137 was saying, the display on at least ES89 has been programmed as if it is a N HV refurb rather than a TH ES. Well that was the impression I got. Just saying it would be nice if they could have common programming across all routes, at least for all London South Garages, if not across all Arriva London. |

I never forgave Londonbusroutes for saying DWs were coming to the 242 in 2003, when it was DLAs instead  I am slowly letting go of the disappointment 21 years on  |

Just occurred to me the 217 must still be running on an emergency contract. I am surprised it was not in the recent tender awards as I believe it’s going to have a 1 year tender before being awarded on a longer term contract.

Hopefully they can rustle up some HVs or HAs for the 217 after the busical chairs for DX and GY |

Or how they’re not coping shall I say |

They're earmarked for the DX routes but that can change considering the SL1 was rumoured to get HVs instead |
