TB have had three Scanias running around - usually on the 61 and 638 extras But those are extras. You asked if there are any left. Yes, there are. They may be extras, but they're still on a normal TfL route, and you can ride on them if they're out that day

Omnicities are not allocated to the 215, 252, 365, 638, 661 and 672. According to LBR, they are. Emailed him. They will probably be corrected soon.

For want of a better place to ask about it, I was wondering about the Hammersmith arrangements on the 27. Is there an actual passenger demand for the loop (given that it is only served in one direction) or is it more that Hammersmith bus station(s) couldn't accommodate any more terminating services?

So with the ulez extension coming in at the end of October, how would it affect routes like 321 who I believe their fleet isn't ulez friendly? Thanks

Thanks Not affected as all buses on TfL services meet EuroVI emissions standards already. It's only the Central London ULEZ (same area as covered by congestion charging) where buses on TfL service must be hybrid or zero-emission.

Thanks It will follow like how Central London routes have to be environmental friendly like only allocating Hybrid or Electric busses. If a existing route has existing disiels for instance the 318, it will have to receive zero emission busses on its next new contract

The extended ULEZ is a little bit different from the Central London ULEZ and the difference is that Euro 6 are allowed in the extended ULEZ where they could not in the Central London ULEZ.

Can anyone go on the extras like the 487V? Here is a video from YouTube:
Appears Tower Transit is using spare DNH's for the service.
