The Troubles of London Bridge - Ensign Supplement

For one week, Ensignbus were designated to run a Canada Water to Waterloo supplement service in the morning and afternoon peaks to help aid the Jubilee line in handling the crowds caused by the works at London Bridge. What really happened was the Jubilee line took nearly all the slack (extras on the 47 took the rest) and this service did carry fresh air (or the odd enthusiast) until later in the week, after it was due to be withdrawn! Aubrey and Jacek (new member) covered this upon the week it did run.

Various buses across the Ensignbus fleet, including the sales and heritage fleet were in service on this service

What is shown is also an example of the 47 extras behind, having a lot more passengers than this Olympian is having!

Some buses did not even pick up passengers enroute either deliberately or just coincidentially.

Even the Daimler Fleetline had a few runs.

Just as a general overview - this set of extras was proving to be so useless as no one used it, they were withdrawn within a week, even though the extra services were probably supposed to last a lot longer!

By the way, I'm Jacek Herominski (or GloriousWater), and I'm a member of this blog now. This means you'll see a few more of my shots in posts, and maybe an actual post from me once in a while, when my coalputer works!. I'll mainly cover the south east (of England, like everyone else).
