London United ADH1 on Route H91, Hammersmith, 15/11/11
Ah, the ADH. Enviro 400H. Featured here, again. ADH1 is the first Enviro 400H for London United, at that time, part of the Transdev Group. It initally went into service in 2009 for the Route 482. However, someone had finally realised it should be on the H91, so after shuttling from Southall* to Heathrow Terminal 5, it now shuttles between Hounslow West and Hammersmith. It has then since moved from HH to S* for the 94, and now moved to the 27 at V, joining other ADHs to make 27 the first fully hybrid route by allocation (16 still has allocated TEs, but rarely has many of them) (27N (well, N27) doesn't count with this).
Route H91 is the western offspring of the old 91 (Hounslow West-Wandsworth, now H91/391). It has gone back to using double deckers due to loadings. The 91 lost its Sunday service back in the 1950s, and the H91 only gained a Sunday service in the 2000s. H91 also has been home to the Dennis Lance SLF (I like them), or LLWs. These were "too small" for the 120, so they moved to Hounslow Heath for the H91. They moved to Stamford Brook with the route when it did and were finally withdrawn unfortunately in 2004 (or finally, depending on viewpoint). Now it has double deckers (SPs), due to capacity issues with single deckers, as experienced by me (Au).
Footnote: A few recent changes have also occured - since Jacob has decided to leave the West London Bus Blog to prioritise other things, Lewis will continue to post there and not here. However, Lewis will continue to support the blog and his images will still appear here occasionally, which is a good thing!

If ADH1 was on loan from Stamford Brook wouldn't it appear on the H91(if the bus was on loan to Hounslow Heath).

DeleteADH1 was ACTUALLY allocated to V, then moved in 2013 to Shepherd's Bush* before Stamford Brook for the 27.
