Why does the X140 iBus say 'Bath Road, Sipson Road' and not 'Heathrow Central'?

Where / how do the 129/286/386 etc get back to LOR or turn around when they are stopped short at east Greenwich? I know there is a stand at Vanbrugh hill facing south but struggle to see how the 129 for example gets back to LOR from there (have seen it standing there at times)

A woman who travels on that bus every day told me that it's been saying 'Bath Road, Sipson Road' for ages

You know how some out of London counties don’t like or allow hybrids on the cross border routes because they are quiet. Do you think that they will allow electrics on the cross border routes?

What examples are there of hybrids not being allowed on cross border routes? Answer? =none. A local authority would just not have the powers to ban a vehicle propulsion type being used on a bus service procured by another authority. The Dartford 96 rumour was verified as just that - nonsensical rumours from a troll on here. And anyway the 235 and 290 which enter Surrey will soon use electric buses, the 692/699 school buses as well as light running 134 electric buses constantly enter Hertfordshire. Hertfordshire and Kent County councils themselves are presently bidding for central govt funding for electric bus fleets, in some cases on services parraleling TfL ones.

Plus Metroline had retained the PB1 with an electric bus although we’re still waiting for it to arrive

I know there is a stand at Vanbrugh hill facing south but struggle to see how the 129 for example gets back to LOR from there (have seen it standing there at times) East Greenwich Turn is Denham Street then Tunnel Avenue where the Bus Stand is. Route 386 cannot use East Greenwich turn doesn’t go there.

I can't do a list, but if you want to do your own research londonbusroutes.net has a route record for each individual route, and any with hail-and-ride sections have those roads underlined. Here's an example for the 379: www.londonbusroutes.net/times/379.htm#roads

This Diamond Geezer post has a table of them, and their location in London. It is from 2015, though, so a few new routes may have been added with Hail and Ride sections. One that springs to mind is the 497.
