232 In Brent Cross is still pretty weird.. 4 years in That one will never stop being weird. Although Go-Ahead’s weirdest moment that will never be topped is seeing the 232 on diversion at one point into Cricklewood Broadway to get into Neasden. 😱 190 operated by Metroline is an nice example of sticking out like a sore thumb in Richmond.

Arriva on the 340 in Harrow. Arriva use dominate Harrow what with them operating the 258, 340, 640, H18 and H19 but not now. The 142 also enters Harrow borough but doesn't enter Harrow town center. I believe it was operated by Arriva The 340 is soon going to RATP though Yeah but I said Harrow as in the Town Centre not the borough that’s why I didn’t include the 142.

Metroline on the 31 felt weird at first. Even though the route runs through loads of areas with Metroline routes it goes nowhere near a Metroline garage and is a bit of a funny route skirting around the edge of zone one whilst Metroline's routes in the likes of Camden and Swiss Cottage penetrate the centre.

The X26 as GAL. GAL only operate routes on half of its route. Abellio and RATP operate routes throughout the majority of the route.

What looked similar strange was when Arriva used former Stagecoach vehicles on routes 340, H18 and H19 that had not been refurbished. Their interiors created the illusion that Stagecoach were present in Harrow!

Stagecoach on route P4 in Brixton. It would seem similarly odd if Arriva were to win it and thus reach Lewisham.
Abellio on route 27 and previously route C2 have been odd.
Metroline on route 295 seemed odd too.

What's the oddest for me is that PV's routes meet every RATP garage:
X - 7 meets 23, 28, 452
S - 7 meets 70, 72, 94
V - 7 meets 272, 283 and N7 meets E3 additionally
TV - N31 meets 639/670 (not at the same time but still counts)
WK - 90 meets most WK routes bar 116
AV - 90 meets H98, 203
FW - N7 meets (N)65

Metroline on route 295 seemed odd too. When the 1 goes to Hampstead it will seem odd to have GAL there. Alternatively if the 168 number was retained, having Metroline in Canada Water would have been strange. The 24 strikes me as odd being with Abellio but only for a small bit, at the Hampstead end

Metroline operated the 205 initially - definitely not common to see it that far into East London. Metroline on 558 up to Chingford Mount. They also operated a long term DLR replacement service down to Lewisham around 15 years ago

Any RATP route entering the borough of Enfield looks odd to me. I believe that there are only 2, the 125 and 251, the latter which is going to Metroline. I believe Haringey has no RATP routes currently. RATP strikes me as a west or SW London operator

E10 has to be strangest one of all time. 26 with stagecoach in Victoria really sticks out to to me I don't believe they have ever had a route in the area apart from the N136, happy to be corrected though.
