No extras for routes 607 or 487 I see. There may be extra's on other routes but this is what I've seen confirmed by people either that work for companies or people at TFL have said are getting extras Thanks for the correction.

I had a laugh about that earlier tonight. Guy gets on with his train ticket, usually I collar him as he's a regular fare dodger and sling him off but due to accepting it I couldn't say anything. He walks off sblack personing as though he's got one over on me. Different story at 2 when its nightbus though, see ya later mate lol. Will buses be accepting tube ticketholders throughout the strike period? Yes.

My morning commute on the A13 was brightened today.
I passed at 7.30am 2 RTs one Southend Livery DM 2 routemasters and two Ensign coaches. Ensign set the standard high yet again with the buses all carrying blinds!! All blinded for the 25 except one was a 38.
Ensign could teach BE garage a thing or two about blinds

As checking on London VF, the NBFL's just entered on the 148, just 10 days before it's official conversion.
Seems to be a special running day for the Vintage buses because of the Tube strike.

Rt3062 on the 29, wonderful trip between Trafalgar square and warren street I saw that earlier, does the conductor have a ticket/oyster machine or is it free travel? If they end up rammed with enthusiast 'joy riding' it'll rather defeat the purpose of laying on extra buses

There is four ensign route masters on the stand at Vauxhall bridge road/Victoria, saw a metroline driver getting a little bit animated at the ensign crew sitting in a RT because he there was no where for him to stand, he just had to put the hazards on for a few minutes and sit next to the stand. A few of them were blinded for the 38, hears hoping I can catch a trip on one.

Meanwhile out west we have about three VA Olympians from London United doing Hounslow West-Osterley-Hammersmith express services, I'm about to go looking for them to get photos and a ride
