Could it have been for Southern Rail Rep? Perhaps. Although it was out of service. But I did see coaches on it. I acc didn't know about the rail rep. I thought that already finished The rail rep is between Balham & Clapham Junction and is until the 10th due to traincrew shortages. They have everything on it. Saw coaches, double deckers and even a minibus on it this afternoon! |

Something I noticed last night whilst traveling in Aldwych is that since the road layout changes, the N343 completely avoids the area to head to Waterloo. TfL couldn't even make the route call at Lancaster Place bus stop where the 139 and 176 call at. That's lack of planning if ever I saw it.  |

I must admit I'd never noticed that the N343 didn't stop at the Lancaster Gate stop and that really is a shocking aberration. Surely the whole point of the stop is for buses coming from Trafalgar Square? You would think drivers on the route might mention it to their management who in turn might bring it to TfL's attention. |

Saw an ex P13 Abellio Enviro200 on the 130 this morning just after 8am when I went through Norwood Junction on the train but it wasn’t being tracked on LVF, think it may have been 8323

BX2 out and about near Bostall Wood this morning. First time in many years I can recall seeing a ferry car with a fleet number.

The 123 was a little hungover from New Year's Eve services this morning. There was a HV curtailing to Tottenham Hale from Wood Green and another HV to Tottenham, Town Hall from Ilford at 6am. Chances are it's the 123N drivers getting those shorts so they could head to the garage to finish their shift. IIRC the new years eve extras some were meant to start and finish from Tottenham Hale and Tottenham Swan. They were different duties to the normal 123 ones. |

Saw Scania 15004 on the 174 this evening. There seems to be a few non electrics on the route recently, especially in evenings. I guess the poor heating has seen drivers want to take diesel buses.

Been in effect since yesterday I believe. It's been in effect since 8pm Tuesday 4th, ends at 6am on the 29th of January. The 423 and 477 are using the Fastrack busway between DVH and Bluewater instead. I've never seen the 428 use it despite there being a sign at the top telling drivers to use it when instructed. |

The 428 has used the Fastrack before, but in the evenings whenever works have taken place on Bean Lane. |

I know the 423 and 477 use it when Bean Lane is closed or if there is major disruption in the area (whether that's because of roadworks or road traffic collisions) but have never seen the 428 use it. Strange that the 428 can't use it now to continue running to Bluewater, means that I have one less route I can use to get to work. |
