Abellio London MMCs for routes 270 and 285 are all registered as SK20s with GOV. That neatly seems to finish off the 285, 270 and 425 buses all as 20 plates without any rogue 70 plates among the batch.

Interestingly, a 10.7m Caetano e.City Gold did a working on route P13 this week.

That’s quite interesting and I did notice it, however i noticed on LVF, it only went as far as Peckham and not new cross, not sure why considering it would have done all the tight toad and twists before reaching Peckham

After almost a year of running with incorrect blinds, 8786 ran on the 433 blinded correctly (not my picture). I might be wrong, that might be the only bus blinded for it, but who knows! On another note, it seems to be standing at the correct place, St. George's Walk!

Would be interesting to know what length the firm would have spec'd/proposed for the 484 with their bid. Also a pity the 315 isn't going to WL where the route could of in-practice been electrified on Sundays.

Surprisingly it didn't display P13 unless it's been locked out to prevent regular odd workings. youtu.be/tVTYTXOhe7YI had a go in one - they have the horrible controllers where you have to use up and down arrows to select each digit for the route and the same for the destinations. Only the C10 and some miscellaneous destinations were programmed in at the time, not the 484 or P13. Rye Lane is closed at the moment so the roads constraining the vehicle size are bypassed. Although I took a 10.8m TLA through Bellenden Road to Peckham Rye station a few years back, I would not recommend anything bigger than the allocated buses go the other direction towards Streatham.

I have no idea why, but there's a bunch of geese (and a dog) alighting from an Abellio bus, and I heartily approve of whatever is going on here.

Hopefully, someone makes sure to send the geese the bill for their fare, alternatively maybe they have a oyster inside their bill Alternatively, I presume the dog would alight at a tail stop I'm off after those awful ones
