Where would it be possible to access a list of routes in London and routes that operate with the NBFL/LT + School routes? www.londonbusroutes.net/details.htm -should have everything you need there And if you click on the bus routes at the top of the page, the LT routes are highlighted in red and scroll down for the school routes

It's probably mentioned somewhere, but here is my question...
If one operator loses LTZ route to another, do the buses get refurb before being shipped to new operator or they just get shipped as is, and if there is refurb, is that full repaint and perhaps what else?

AFAIK, and from history changes such as the 15 they simply transfer. LTZ vehicles are owned by TFL.

All examples so far, the buses needed for service on the Saturday with the new operator were in service with the old operator on the Friday, so no time for any refurb/repaint. Think all the old operator does is remove their logo.

Up until recently many LTs were too new to be refurbished as many were introduced to routes mid contract, firms then handing over buses that were less than 5 years old.

Wasn’t sure where to put this (apologies if this is way out of context for this thread). Article on homelessness and rough sleeping on buses www.bbc.co.uk/news/stories-5045982121 years!

Does anyone know how I can find out the historic timings for a specific run on a bus (as in what actually happened, not what the timetable says should happen)? I want to know if I can rely on the 603 that leaves Muswell Hill at ~7:45 to get to Hampstead Village by 8:35, by seeing if that bus did so successfully in the past week or so. Maybe using LVF?

Will the N109 be extended to Marble Arch from 1 Feb 2020? Thanks too M1104 "According to this month's LOTS from Saturday February 1st the N109 will be "...extended from Oxford Circus via Oxford Street to terminate at Marble Arch." Having said that it also says "...using existing diesel double decks." lol With LOTS being a long-standing reliable source of information they can be forgiven for the apparent errors. Incidentally there's no mention on the 159 which presently still goes to Marble Arch, so I'm therefor guessing either the 159 gets cut back to Oxford Circus on the same day or that the changes may all be done later on in the year."

We all know that Stagecoach always go for ADL buses, but so far have not bought any E400 City. Anyone know why?

Actually Stagecoach has now bought buses with E400 City bodywork, the 32 electric vehicles currently being delivered to Manchester have it as ADL do not supply the MMC bodywork on the BYD chassis currently*. * electric buses - currently - see what I did there? Oh, please yourselves.
