Think it must be one of the bus stops near aldwych / strand I was thinking it was Richmond George Street with 17 routes serving that stop. EDIT. It's 15 but TfL seems to suggest that 33 and 337 serve that stop when they don't I think they have have done temporary while the pavement was extending due to social distancing.

Streatham High Road & Streatham Hill both have particular stops that 15 routes serve as well - in the case of Streatham High Road, it's Mount Ephraim Road & Kingscourt Road stops in both directions and for Streatham Hill, it's the Christchurch Road stop towards Streatham only (the northbound stop doesn't have the 201 serve it) I think the biggest is in Central London somewhere around Trafalgar Square or Aldwych?

Southampton Street (Covent Garden) on the strand (eastbound) has the following 22 routes serving 1 stop: 6, 9, 11, 15, 87, 91, 139, 176, N9, N11, N15, N21, N26, N44, N87, N89, N91, N155, N199, N343, N550, N551

I found this out when travelling on an N26; I'd rung the bell to get off at Bedford Street (which is served by the same set of routes as Southampton Street), only for the driver to refuse to stop, insisting that the N26 didn't serve that stop. I was sure he was bullsh*tting but when I went to have a look, the N26 and N47 were missing from the bus stop flag. Clearly this was an oversight, as the stop was announced on iBus, but I completely forgot to report it at the time. I think the error was only corrected when the N199 replaced the N47!

What bus stop has the most routes on it and how many does it have? Think the N29 has the most stops, if i recall 79? I remember a video about it, but even 79 seems crazy for a route?

The place where the 11/N11 and 42 terminates is it Shoreditch or Liverpool Street? Thing is its a bit of both, Appold Street which is the stand is in the middle, take a right go down to Liverpool Street and take a left to Shoreditch which are both like 1 minute walks. The bus stop before the stand for the 11 and 42 are Primrose Street which is also the stop before Liverpool Street Station, however the stop after and right next to the 11/42 stand is Shoreditch High Street Station for the 26, 135, 149, 205 routes so I’d say its closer to Shoreditch but really it’s a mix of both.

What ever happened to First’s Y garage? IIRC, it was or still is a Wrightbus facility. I believe it was situated off Faraday Avenue.
