Route 491 01/06/13

Route 491 was awarded to Go-Ahead London General from Arriva London North with new Wright Streetlites. It was an early start though, as I intended to also cover 599 and 219.

Due to an "incident" at Seven Sisters, I took 279 from there to Silver Street, instead of getting a train there.

And I reached Angel Corner, Edmonton:

Afterwards, I went to Reedham to try and get 599 (which failed as the route hasn't started yet, apparently), but I did end up meeting Tom Bowell there (of Tom London Bus Blog), and also did train observations at East Croydon, which is the next post.

  1. Great post! According to London Vehicle Finder route 491 wasn't running yesterday.

    1. The iBus on 491 wasn't working - that's why
