My ideal bus By George

One thing leads to another By George

 Today in Tally Ho (134) stand i learnt that if a bus breaks down it can cause a whole lot more trouble than it seems
Metroline TE927 LK58 KGG  134 broke down
This cause TPL238 to notify other drivers to leave space for it to leave
Metroline TPL238 LN52 KXR 134
Metroline VPL587 LK04 NMU Waiting to depart 
This caused a pile up of 134s waiting outside their termination point due to being unable to go and take their buses into the stand  (not pictured) sorry i am oblivious to the reason of the fault but hope TE927 get back into service

LONDON`S Transport Museum By George

Today i decided to take a trip to London`s transport museum in The wonderful Covent Garden there was not much to see here i anticipated TA1 to be here but maybe i was too early i saw the new routemaster in my opinion the interior is a bit tacky but if londoners voted for it then it must be what the people want (post you thoughts on the  new routemaster) I also played with the IBUS system at the museum you can find it her http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tvy3h7p3lBI&feature=channel_video_title
Enjoy!

Odd observations By George

Today while on my travels i noticed some unusual buses on the route RV1
First London DMC41500 LK03 LNW

 The Hydrogen buses that are supposed to used for the route
Are in repair due to one of them catching fire but a mix of 
E200s and Wright Gemini 2 have shared the route until
they are fixed but i was not expecting DMCs to be running the route 
but probably due to a backlog of buses for rail replacement
