I'd be most interested in the numbers, hope they weren't like your EVL21 the other day! ;D ;D

Just to remind you Travel London has been rebranded Abellio London.
Around 40% of buses have recieved new logo!
Also was on TFL website on Ipod touch , saw some webcams , what appeared to be the gemini2s for route 21 and 63 on the Old Kent Road
Luckily took a picture of it , dunno whether to upload!

Few from the last couple of days:

VPxx on a Hayes-bound H98 at Harlington Corner on Sunday

Enviro200 (possibly DML44017?) on route U5, also Sunday

Northbound U1 at West Drayton on Monday afternoon displaying 'Short Journey' on the blind, iBus reckoned it was Terminating at Brunel University.

Eastbound 607 from Uxbridge this evening (~7pm) destined for Ealing Broadway - given time of day could be regular working?

old H50/U7 (dunno what type it is) vehicle on the 350 toward T5 this evening around 7.30 - Had blank blinds and pieces of paper in Window denoting route number and destination.

Unbranded - Single Door Pointer Dart on route U7 all day yesterday, and route 350 the day before.

I thought all single door vehicles had been banished from TfL routes ages ago...

I believe, and happy to be corrected, that when a route requires new buses then they must be double doored.
