My very first experience of a Stanier 'Jubilee' over the 'Midland Route' was in August 1965, with haulage between Skipton and Carlisle behind 45698 'Mars' on a Saturday extra to Glasgow. Sister loco 45699 'Galatea' most certainly evoked those distant memories for me as she approached the summit of Ais Gill in typically overcast and blustery conditions on Thursday 3 July 2014 heading the return 'Cathedrals Express' charter from Carlisle to Oxford.

RATP London United's SDE3, a short-wheelbase single-door ADL Enviro200, is seen at the Warwick Dene terminus of route E11; this serves an area on the edge of Ealing Common that is some distance from other bus routes. Warwick Dene itself, to the left of the bus, is an area of parkland that was not part of the Common land, and was turned into an enclosed garden by the local council in 1905.
Warwick Dene was first served by route E10, which commenced on 24th May 1997; on 27th May 2002 the E10 was rerouted away from the Drayton Green area and curtailed at Ealing Broadway, with new route E11 covering these sections.

Route 66 is perhaps America's most famous highway. It linked downtown Chicago to the Santa Monica Pier in California and is often referred to as "The Mother Road." It helped usher in the era of modern automobile transit in America.

Today, much of the fabled Route 66 has been replaced by more efficient (but somewhat sterile) Interstate highways. There are still many, however, who make a pastime of revisiting the sections of Route 66 that still exist in bits and pieces across the Midwest.
We pulled off the modern interstate in Oklahoma to change drivers last week and wound up driving this section of the old Route 66 for several miles before rejoining the interstate. It was a nostalgic few miles which hearkened back to a bygone era in America.
Route 440 : Turnham Green, Church (UU) - Wembley, Forth Way
📍 Old North Circular Road / Beresford Avenue (Ace Cafe)
Oct. 19, 2021: Stop in Holbrook, Arizona. Holbrook, Arizona, was founded in 1881 and gained famed as a classic wild west town. Called a town "too tough for women and churches," Holbrook in 1914 was the only county seat in the United States without a church. The early Mormon settlers had left. Many residents served with Theodore Roosevelt's Rough Riders in the 1898 Spanish-American War. Today the Route 66 community of 5,000 is known for petrified wood stores and dinosaur sculptures.
Having commenced London Bus operations when it took over a large slice of First London in June 2013, Tower Transit has now started making inroads into other operators' services, with new contracts being taken over for route 488 (from Stagecoach) on Saturday 28th February, and routes 212 (CT Plus) and 444 (Arriva London North) on Saturday 7th March - the 212 is CT Plus' first tender loss since it commenced London Bus operations with route 153 in 2001.
Tower Transit has ordered three very different batches of vehicles for the three routes, with the 212 gaining Volvo B5LH/Wright Gemini 3 hybrids, and the 444 door-forward Wright Streetlites. The offering for route 488 is somewhat more conventional, in the shape of 10.8m ADL Enviro200s, although these do have Euro6 low emission engines and introduce Tower Transit's new interior colour scheme, based on greys and greens. They also carry the same fleet numbering system, with vehicle-type letter codes, that was inherited from First London.
DMV 45104 is seen in the bus interchange at Dalston Junction Station on Monday 2nd March at the start of another journey to Bromley-by-Bow; a 'Tesco' qualifier has now been added to the blind display.
The Dalston Junction bus interchange was built with the idea of rerouteing northbound buses, which in the event has never happened. It was also thought there might be some restructuring of routes in the area to provide interchange at the rebuilt station, which was reopened in April 2010 as part of the East London Line Extension project - route 488's extension from Clapton Pond has been the sole change so far, and it remains the only route to use this facility. With no less than seven stands, drivers on routes 488 are spoiled for choice!
