Is the 321 the only route to terminate at separate supermarkets? (New Cross Sainsbury’s / Foots Cray Tesco) H28 terminates at Tescos both ends (Bulls Bridge/Osterley) There are a few routes that terminates at places that have supermarkets but the supermarket is not the main terminal point. 83 and 245 terminates at Alperton Sainsbury’s at one end and there’s a Sainsbury’s at Golders Green station. 107 terminates at Edgware and New Barnet stations which has a Sainsbury’s at each end. 183 terminates at Pinner and Golders Green stations which has a Sainsbury’s at each end. 240 terminates at Edgware and Golders Green stations which has a Sainsbury’s at each end. Oddly, 140 only serves supermarkets at both ends in one direction. In the Harrow Weald direction, it starts at Asda and terminates at Waitrose. In the Hayes direction, it starts at Lidl/Waitrose and terminates at the Hayes and Harlington station and doesn’t serve the Asda. Do we have a bus that has its terminus include Morrisons, Lidl or Aldi, or even a stop name with them in it? I think I have heard of a Morrisons somewhere but cant recall. However, not come across Aldi/Lidl in names although they are newer a guess and paying for some free advertising will probably destroy their business strategy  |

Perhaps there is another out there. |

Just outside London, the 346, 346A and 385 terminates at Watford Morrisons. I’m certain in one of the previous incarnations of these local town services (think it was W18/W19), the bus just displayed ‘Morrisons’ on its LED blinds. |

Which area of London has the most routes operated with the same buses from the same garage/ the most homogeneous?
I could suggest Welling as most of its routes use the exact same batch of buses for their allocation (51, 89. 486 and the odd B16 double decker. Also not forgetting the school routes 624, 625, 658. The only odd routes are 96 and B15.

The 140 is interesting as in the Hayes direction, it runs from Harrow Weald Bus Garage and the last stop in service is Hayes and Harlington Station, however it seems towards Harrow it almost starts a stop earlier and terminates a stop earlier, starting at Millington Road (Hayes Asda) and terminating at Long Elmes as opposed to Harrow Weald. N18 is weirdly similar in the fact that it terminates at Long Elmes despite not being an ML route anymore. Any reason as to why it just doesn't stand outside HD? |

I believe it does, It uses the stand in front of stop WT and then runs up to the roundabout to turn round back towards Harrow. |

Well soon we'll see Kites on the route as odd workings with 371 in the middle of their fleetcode, so that'll make up for it! |

The H25 serves two stops called Feltham Station and are right after each other.

Using route 95, you can connect with the 195, 295 and (in future) the 495. 95 and 395 only come so close with the 95 diverting away from Greenford Stationat Greenford Roundabout
