Was WSD1 not hybrid? The 486 saw one.Also great to see 198 and 250 with hybrids - the more routes off this list, the better. Didn't the 486 also use YJ16DBO? It was a diesel Metrodecker iirc |

The 370 & 103 can be crossed out as LTs made an appearance on both routes

Have only just come across this thread. When the 486 was still single-deck its allocation included three gas-powered DAFs. So it hasn't quite been an all-diesel route, even if the non-diesels weren't double-deckers.

169 can now be off the list after recent hybrid appearances on the route and also the 62 has finally seen hybrids from its own garage in recent weeks.

The SL7 can actually be added to this list, having never seen any buses apart from its branded WVLs (and WVN51 for a few hours) since its renumbering, and very unlikely to see a hybrid or electric until its new contract in April 2025.

I take it that Ee's at C do not have route SL7 on their route/destination displays? |

The next route which can be tick off the list is the 89 as MHV67 did the route last night.

Has the 685 seen any hybrids?

Ironically (thou unlikely in practice) the 28 can now join the Diesel DD route list.

Some routes have been exclusively diesel. Only a few double-deck bus routes have never had a low-emissions bus working (whether battery-hybrid, smart-hybrid, electric, pantograph or hydrogen-powered) remain. 66, 89†† 121, 128, 150*, 175, 247, 279†, 291, 294, 486, 498, SL7. * - hybrids have appeared on the 150D service operated by Go-Ahead. † - Due for an allocation of low-emission buses for new contract. †† - Due for an allocation of low-emission buses for new contract. EP14 was possibly on this route. Which one will be the last? I'm predicting route 66 and 175 291. If I've missed any out, or any routes on my list have had the elusive working, let me know. Just to clarify, I’m not talking about routes allocated diesels, I am looking for routes which have never seen a low or non-emissions bus. Was LT2 on the 191 a real working?I believe the 61 and 261 could be added to this list |

The 61 has also seen at least one instance of a regular hybrid according to LVF with 12363 running on the route back in October last year |

Can the 150 be fully off the list? I know there was 150D under GAL that had EHV working before. But also we had G2 HVs doing the full route for the Central Line Extras.
