How has the P13 been for drivers and regular passengers alike, since the diversion along Lordship Lane instead of the normal Underhill Road/Whateley Road route?
Depending on the driver and the time, they've either been driving slow along LL checking the piece of paper or have used going along LL to make time up, as was the case today when it was stuck along Edgar Kail Way by East Dulwich Sainsburys due to the sheer wait of traffic coming out of the car park.
Personally I've been using it as an alternative to the 197 from Peckham Bus Station and not surprisingly has been largely quiet due to not serving those residential streets in East Dulwich.

63 from Honor Oak to Peckham Rye. (Presumably so they can run light to PM)

Oyster 60+ is free on all TfL services, including London Overground which is technically a NR service during the peaks. This will be handy for Abellio Greater Anglia customers on metro services out of Liverpool Street which switch to LO (or TfL Rail to Shenfield) from May 31st who'll be able to use those trains in the morning peak.

I had an email from TfL about the conversion of the 12 to LT's. However according to LVF, one WVL is still operating today.

They should have recorded it when the N29 was a bendy bus!

The local paper down here is reporting the 12's conversion to LT will be complete by the end of the month.

My local one doesn't any more. I went in yesterday and no sign of it. Same the previous month. In the end I had to get it at Sainsburys. WH Smith is a disaster compared to years ago. I used to shop there frequently but now I hardly bother as the store layout and range are appalling never mind the disinterested staff and "do you want a chocolate bar?" offers. If I was in Croydon I'd actually look For Buses in the East Croydon Stn Smiths rather than the one in the town centre. Yes I think WH Smith have been in serious decline for quite a while now, obviously the fact that most of the things they sell have been superseded by the internet doesn't help. That said I've never had any difficulty finding whatever magazines I've wanted, maybe I've just been lucky? I'm actually quite suprised at Sainsburys having Buses magazine. No problems getting BUSES in Tesco Extra and Sainsburys. |

363 diverted today and Monday from 0900-1700 in both directions between Peckham Rye and Lordship Lane/Wood Vale via Route 197 along Barry Road and Lordship Lane.
Route 63 continues to serve Peckham Rye and Forest Hill Road.

The 436 was nicknamed the "Four Free Six" for a reason.

I remember on a couple of occasions when the 176, 185 and 197 were diverted along the 363 route from Lordship Lane/Wood Vale stop to Goose Green/Peckham Rye when Lordship Lane was closed due to a road accident. All those deckers getting stuck along Underhill Road.
A more logical diversion would have beeen Dulwich Common, College Road, Dulwich Village and East Dulwich Grove to Goose Green.

Can't say I miss the bendy buses. Bad enough the NBfL is coming to the 12 soon.
