I have a blind set which only contained route 70, for the DMLs on the route in the Tower Transit days.
Also, on Tuesday I saw a 257 from Walthamstow turned short at Leyton Green (4 stops).

In the 1990s the N3 used to serve Victoria Station but the 3 didn't, it's now the other way round.

Has there ever been a batch of buses with only one route on the blinds? Conversely, which batch has the most routes on blinds? IIRC the Citaros at TB for route 227 had the number 227 "stuck" in/on the blind box, rendering them routebound. |

IIRC the Citaros at TB for route 227 had the number 227 "stuck" in/on the blind box, rendering them routebound. The Sprinters that First used on the 395 had the route number stuck on the side and rear, as there was no room for a blind box! They did have a conventional blind box on the front though, and these had blinds for W12 as well as 395 - no idea if they had other routes as well.
Can't remember what TGM / Metrobus did with the Sprinters on the R8. From the photos I've found so far they didn't display anything on the side. There must have been a rear number display but no-one seems to have taken any pictures of their rear ends.

They used to be used frequently on the W12 on Sundays. |

SF was all-LT between June(?) 2019 (when the 67 was converted to LT) and June 2020. At this point the 67 was lost and the 318 moved in with its vintage E200s, breaking the LT monopoly. |

Once route C11 converts to electrics later this year, every route with the C prefix will have a full allocation of electric buses.

Boston Manor Road (SA) - perhaps the only bus stop with an 'alight here' q-tile depicting a walking icon and the distance to the destination? linkThe opposite stop (SL) used to have them too before they were changed for the standard text only version for whatever reason. |

Apart from school routes the 367 is the only bus route serving Addiscombe at the moment with working bus blinds.
