Do you know if the 469 will increase in PVR when it is extended to Kidbrooke on the 15th June. Unless I have missed something, route 469 is not being extended to Kidbrooke on 15th June.

I doubt there's space to accommodate another route in Kidbrooke let alone 3 routes at the station. 469 is already a snakey route and to be honest Kidbrooke already has sufficient routes running through the area, I don't think the area needs anymore routes.

Do you know if SEN47 will ever return to service as it had a bad accident last September.

Kidbrooke Station has no terminus anymore. 335 & B16 stand on Moorehead Way definitely no space for anything else. If another route was to go via Kidbrooke then could easily be accommodated as it would not be stopping there. As for 469 to Kidbrooke who dreamt that up?

I found it on the London bus Wikipedia page it said changes that 469 would be extended to Kidbrooke from the 15th June but when you said I realised it must be mistake as it isn't anywhere else.

Wikipedia has some extremely militant policing going on to ensure sources are cited.

Wikipedia removes some pieces of information for not being cited and leaves some blatantly wrong things. A while back I tried to edit the SL5 page as someone had wrote it couldn't use double deckers because of a low bridge, and they cited 3 sources that did not mention that at all. Needless to say there were quite a few undos but I eventually got the information corrected. The fandom is much better in that regard as its written by enthusiasts who know what they're on about

Does anyone know if SEe243 has moved permanently to A or is it going to return to Croydon at some point? I saw it in Sutton on Thursday night on the S2 - a bit strange it's still at A despite the S2's buses all being in service now.

I think it’s permanent presumably the S2 needs that extra spare much more since it cannot sub any other vehicle from A. Also now that the 439’s batch has arrived at C SEe243 probably isnt needed
