Don't forget the 50! If there was space for the 57 at Telford Avenue or Streatham Hill Station, it'd be cut back to one of those terminus's in a jiffy! I know what I'd do with the 57, I'd controversially extend it to Brixton. And the 49 to Clapham Common Old Town?

The 492 is DD only really for school times at other times provides unique useful links and sections such as north Cray road but surprisingly is not really that busy.

Prior to the Olympics the 133 rarely picked anybody up between London Bridge and Liverpool Street, however since then and especially since the last tube strike it has got quite a following over this section, especially with people travelling from Monument, King William Street or Threadneedle Street into Old Broad Street or on to the last stop in Wormwood Street. I've also had a few asking if they can continue on to Houndsditch, but that's a light run, so no! Also quite a few now using it between Becmead Avenue (Streatham Odeon) or St. Leonard's Church to get to the new Tesco/Leisure Centre.
Can't knock it, it's all work at the end of the day!

Moz Has it picked up since the Tesco opened? Before that, you'd be lucky to get more than 4 people travelling to the hub.

P5 between Lansdowne Way & Patmore Estate - only route to enter the Patmore Estate, also connects the northern part of the estate to the 77, 87, 196 & indirectly, the 452.

Route 363 on Underhill Road, East Dulwich. The only route to serve Bradbury Oak House, a blind people's housing complex. Route P13 also serves this section of road in the northbound direction only. I suspect if it wasn't for that accommodation building, TfL would have re-routed Route 363 in the Crystal Palace direction to serve the Grove Tavern stop on Lordship Lane via Melford Road.
P13, New Cross Gate to New Cross Sainsbury's. The only route from the west of the retail park to serve it directly.
356 in Kirkdale north of Dartmouth Road. Serves a hilly part of Sydenham which for many years had no bus service unless you walked further down Kirkdale or up to Sydenham Hill. Connects Upper Sydenham with Forest Hill without changing for the 122, 176 or 197. There are other parts of the route where it only connects largely residential areas in the Shirley, Eden Park, Lower Sydenham and Anerley areas.
352 - The only route to serve New Beckenham.
