So do LTs on the 481D do the full route of the 481? If so then how comes 11.2m LTs can get around the 481 then why can’t 10.9m BCEs?

Only 1 Diesel E400 from QB on the 156!
The other 2 seem to be hiding as usually on the 345.

The 481 has some school journeys which internally would be known as the 481D and these can be operated by an entirely different operator to the regular service but to passengers, they'd be known as 481 still - the 405 had a similar arrangement for a while as did the 150 but these no longer run or in the case of the 405D are now there own school route in the shape of the 645

We’re these journeys being run by London United up until half term but have then been awarded to Abellio?

I’ve seen a photo of 2447 which has been fitted LED dests. I also spotted some wooden flooring at the front and I wonder if it has any other of the high spec features?

It was refurbished by RGI, who do most of not all of the Abellio refurbs, to showcase the latest in refurbishment quality so it’s possible. I’d expect it to be back at QB soon.
