Oddly, I didn't start with a night bus, but rather the first 237 of the day...
Metroline VW1040 (LK10 BXH), Turnham Green
But, at Stamford Brook, I was greeted with the first night bus.
London United/RATP SP48 (YT09 BND) on Route N9, Stamford Brook
And soon, more came. And I went on some of them:
First London VNW32437 (LK04 HYG), Kensington, on Route N28
Go-Ahead London General WHV22 (LJ61 NVH), Hyde Park Corner, on Route N19
Abellio London 2433 (SN61 CYT), Trafalgar Square, on Route N3
Go-Ahead SOC6 (LX08 ECT), Trafalgar Square, on Route N551
Go-Ahead VWL24 (LF52 THK) on Route N1, Aldwych
First London DN33612 (SN11 BMU) on Route N26, Aldwych
Stagecoach 19795 (LX11 BHO) on Route N15, St Pauls
Odd, day 47 in front of N47...
Stagecoach London 17476 (LX51 FLM) on Route 47 and 18464 (LX55 EPO) on Route N47, London Bridge
Metroline TE947 (LK58 KHD) on Route N91, Trafalgar Square

Stagecoach 18491 (LK06 AGU) on Route N47, Trafalgar Square
Go-Ahead London Central WVL355 (LX60 DWE) on Route N89, Trafalgar Square. London's longest stopping bus service.

Go-Ahead London WVL161 (LX05 FBZ) on Route N22
London United/RATP SP120 (YR59 FZB) on Route N97, Knightsbridge.
London United/RATP SP44 (YT09 BMY) on Route N9, Trafalgar Square
And SP44 at Heathrow Terminal 5. This was the last N9 to Heathrow T5 on that day, the time was now 0802...
Now, en-route home... Metroline VW1175 (LK11 CXJ) on Route 105, Heathrow Central.
Now, iBus videos:
Various night routes...
Loved your post! I have never been on a night bus before. I was extremely close to getting one but a stupid District Line train held me up inches before the platform. Blimmin' tube!
ReplyDeleteThanks :)
DeleteUnlucky though. What route would've you gotten on? N9?
I was at Ealing Broadway trying to catch an N11. These never appear on countdown at Ealing so you can never tell when it is coming. I do know the times of when the N11s depart and I saw an N7!
