The 14 has huge demand of its own (if a bit further up the route), but I agree about the other four having more modest loads. I don’t find the 220 demand surprising though, the 220 forges a path which is very convoluted on the Tube. From Putney Bridge, to Westfield/Wood Lane it requires one or even two changes at Earl’s Court and Hammersmith, or NHG. For Hammersmith it you have to go to the Central London border to Earl’s Court then either go down to the Piccadilly Line or another slow District Line train to Hammersmith. It’s a journey easier by bus (not to mention cheaper), so it’s little wonder the demand for the 220 is off the scale If you get a good connection, Putney Bridge to Westfield is quicker by changing at West Brompton for LO |

Will the 62 reg ADHs for the E3 recieve another repaint and refurb for another contract? For buses being withdrawn within 3-4 years, I'd very much highly doubt it. It might get a repaint but probably not a refurb. |

As I'm currently writing this, RATP has once again decided to abandon all services east of Southgate resulting in an hour gap on the 125. Good job BT!👍

Good job BT!👍 As I check LVF now,there are a lot of turns on RATP routes such as: x5 18 to Baker Street Station x3 65 to Great West Road, Ealing Road x3 49 to Battersea,Latchmere Road,and x1 to Battersea Bridge, South Side x2 235 to Busch Corner (I saw 3 buses on stand earlier) x7 220 to Putney Bridge x3 148 to Elephant and Castle x3 94 to Oxford Circus Not a good day for RATP at all... (I know this is the wrong thread to mention all these turns,but it is RATP related in my defense) Ooh, I'm a conductor now 🥳🥳🥳 |

Because as soon as trouble appears on the 65 (which is every day) the northern end gets abandoned. |

That would be total chaos in my view. |

Lots of bunching on 216 today. Not a great deal of traffic anywhere on the route either, so not sure what’s gone wrong.

Is E3 on a temporary diversion? Noticed lots of bunching to Greenford Broadway with very little going to the Chiswick direction. No diversion sign either aside from something about badly parked cars when I was at Action Town Station.

We got sent via the 65’s routing and then the H91’s routing between West Ealing Broadway to Acton Town, can’t remember the exact roads. But the route was an utter mess, so many huge gaps. (Which tbh isn’t really anything new for that route) |

Even worse when you plan to visit an area to travel to for an sneak visit with limited time, fighting to use the underground that doesn’t stop at your stop on top of lack of information (TfL web update would have sufficed here). Seems from another post above I probably should allow more time to use E3. 🥲 |
