Still seem to be curtailed at 9.25. RTC, the 151, 213 and SL7 are also on a diversion from a diversion due to the closure of Cheam Road. Where would they go now Brighton Road is blocked as well?

Just saw IE6 at Crystal Palace. The caption to this photo (link below - not mine) suggests that driver training is taking place; a driver appears to be being shown the correct positioning of the vehicle for pantogrpah charging, and raising and lowering of the pantograph. This suggests that the long-awaited entry into service may finally be imminent! It also means that the 358's Citaros can be released for their temporary Fasttrack duties. flic.kr/p/2qfy92d

There's been so many false dawns that I'll believe it when it actually happens.

I probably would have cut the 139 aswell to save ruining the route and adding to congestion on the diversion.

I probably would have cut the 139 aswell to save ruining the route and adding to congestion on the diversion. Likewise, some are already curtailing because of said congestion aswell. Bit of an irritiance when the 139 is serving one singular stop at Waterloo Bridge / South Bank in the Waterloo direction and only Tenison Way towards Golders Green before diverting and not serving any stops until Regent Street / St James’. I am not actually sure about the 87 either, which would be curtailed to Whitehall usually, but all are blinded for Aldwych. Route 87 is currently on diversion between Lambeth Palace and Aldwych im assuming due to the roadworks at Millbank, Parliament Square and then Cockspur Street / Covent Garden.

TfL status reports Stratford bus station is closed due to a broken down bus!
262 and 473 seem to be running as far as Plaistow. Not sure where routes like the 104 and 238 are turning around. The 257 is running to Maryland.

Must be a pretty major breakdown if TfL are starting the 678 from Upton Lane. Anyone know what has broken down?
