Metroline VWH2003 (LK14FAJ) pauses at King's Cross station on Pentonville Road on route 17 operates a short working to King's Cross due to various road closures for the Prudential RideLondon cycle event.
VWH2003 was a recent transfer to Holloway garage from Perivale for the retained route 17 contract. The new style Gemini 3 VWHs failed to route test because of the extended overhang. Therefore, the new buses that have been bought for the route have been switched to Perivale for the 7 displacing VWH2001-2023 to Holloway. These vehicles are also reusing the smartblinds from the TEs and VWs that have transferred out over the past few months.
