Here it is in the metal on the S1 last Monday - note the interesting use of a "W" (think that's been mentioned). View AttachmentI've started referring to it as 0 "upside down W" 1 now. Such a dreadful job done quite frankly. Not to mention that it shouldn't even be in the OM class regardless, and that if it actually is on temp loan, the Metrocities will start from OM2! The fact that the actual OMs have been coded in the complete wrong order really winds me up too. There is a special place reserved in hell for people who do things like that. The person responsible for the ex-Abellio SENs can rest easy knowing that they too shall have a place reserved as well I saw an ex-Avellio SEN on the 232 last October, had the red abellio seat moquette and all that.

WVL204, the oldest bus, has been retired as V extras ended. Loved the bus, makes me sad!

When E226 moved to C, it was replaced by a WVN transferred in from elsewhere (believe it was NP)

That's 9001 which was part of Abellio’s 381 batch, now with The Bromley Bus Preservation Group. WVL204 was part of a batch delivered new to AF for the OPO conversions of the 14 and 22.

My goodness the traffic in both North and East London was a mess today. Commercial Road the amount of 115s 15s and 135 stuck on that road to the point hardly any 115s were running past Canning Town. The 15 stopped short at Aldgate. It also didn't help that the southbound Blackwall tunnel was closed. I feel for those on the 108.

Oh yes yes I forgot to add that part in. I was coming from the other end and I saw how much traffic there was around Bow.

The 108's had been relatively protected as they were scheduled to divert into Canning Town all day - pic. But still did experience some delays passing through Poplar All Saints.

Does the 108 even go to Canning Town? Its normal route does not see the 108 pass through Canning Town. However when Blackwall Tunnel is closed, the 108's operation splits with Lewisham- North Greenwich south of the river and Stratford International- Canning Town north of the Thames. One of the reasons the 108 is sent to Canning Town is for passengers to transfer onto the Jubilee line to cross the Thames for onward travel.
