Ex-London logistics operations whizz, now learning to pilot buses around the Home Counties.

Bucks/Oxon
Also obliged to note that nowhere on the 379 route is - even by the loosest Borough definition - in Enfield. Understand that Thamesway had Enfield routes it operationally slotted in to, but a botched piece of LT localism.

Unhappy memories of these on such backwater rural routes as the 28 and 31 through Notting Hill and Chelsea. Tended to bunch into 3+ and were chronically overcrowded. Miserable user experience.

For the first time in my life I booked a hotel to stay in town rather than schlep it out on the last Met. Surreal waking up and stepping out into an empty Fleet St. 4x4 Panda got an overnight stay in zone 1. Then breakfast at Andrews, the cafe that launched a thousand working days at our WC1 office.

It is the 1 between Wycombe and Chesham (hourly on to Hemel, as during the week). Wasn't aware the X20 had been upped!

The Sunday service on our local commercial route (linking a string of commuter towns in Bucks) recently got upped from hourly to half hourly. Ridership seems to have responded well. Can't think of many routes in the home counties with a Sunday service more frequent than hourly.

Yes! Very common on side roads of Tottenham until the mid 90s, but a few lingered on longer.
