Abellio, Uxbridge to Lewisham 427 to Acton 207 to White City 49 to Clapham Junction 345 to Peckham P13 to East Dulwich 484 to Lewisham A similar one you could do using only Abellio buses, Harefield-Bromley U9 to Uxbridge 427 to Acton 207 to Shepherds Bush 49 to Clapham Junction 345 to Brixton 109 to Croydon 367 to Bromley North or at Croydon you could get the 407 down to Caterham.

Before Go-Ahead lost the 20 it was possible to go from Redhill-Debden on Go-Ahead routes.

AC (Willesden) has three routes that all start at the garage and head into Central London (which I define as zone 1). BN rivals that with the 59, 137 & 319 all starting at BN and finishing within Zone 1 Of these, route 319 stands out for heading away from central London before reaching zone 1. Mind you, route 113 heads north from Edgware before reaching zone 1.

Metroline has 135 VMHs, but most of these are allocated to EW, G or PA in Middlesex or PB in Hertfordshire. Those at KC in London city are clearly a minority.
I doubt any other company has so many of a single type technically not allocated to a London city garage. Without checking, RATP DLEs could be another candidate.

If you are talking non-London post codes Arriva has TC, TH, DT, GY, DX & E ... sure DWs and Ts based at those garages exceed 135

RATP DLEs and even VHs could even be candidates.

What routes have the most mixture of vehicles running on them? Can even be strays and rares
I’d say the 18, 207 and 238 are candidates
18 has Gemini 3 Mark 1 Gemini 3 Mark 2 Enviro 400 Enviro 400 Hybrid
207 has: Enviro 400 MMC Enviro 400 Smart Hybrid MMC Enviro 400
238: Scania Omnicity Enviro 400 Enviro 400 MMC Enviro 400 Smart Hybrid MMC New Routemaster (extra workings when District is shut)

RATP have around 180 VHs (including 139 Gemini 2 VHs) I wonder whether a noticeable majority are at "non London city" garages ie EB, AV, HH, FW, TV, BT, SO but not S, V or RP.
