The rusted carcass of a vintage automobile marks historic Route 66 outside of Petrified Forest National Park in Arizona. A once bustling gateway to the west connecting Chicago to Santa Monica and LA, Route 66 (now Route 40), was proof that the journey itself is often more interesting than the arrival at one's destination.

For a while in the 1990's Metrobus used RF255 on Summer Sunday route 746. Here it is loading up at Bromley North in September 1995.
Route 62 is due to be converted to double-deck under a new contract commencing on Satutday 30th April. In practice the conversion is being phased in and the first of the new ADL Enviro400 MMCs are already in service, such as 10315 seen in Linton Road, Barking Town Centre on Friday 22nd April.
The buses carry the new standard destination blinds, on which the qualifying point, where one is used, is carried beneath the main destination in upper-case lettering. Gascoigne Estate lies just to the south of Barking Town Centre and route 62 buses operate in a one-way loop around the estate.
A small number of these buses are also destined for partial conversion of route 145, where they will operate alongside existing Enviro400s. In practice the batch will be mixed in operation, and it is very likely they will be seen on other Barking-operated routes as well, such as the 5, 101 and 169.
Former Summerhill AV115 came out of storage recently and is now seeing service again from Harristown depot. It's seen here at Suffolk Street while operating Route 142 from UCD Belfield, via Dartry, Rathmines, St. Stephen's Green, The Quays, Dublin Tunnel, M1, Holywell, Seabury, Malahide to Portmarnock.

Due to ongoing bridge works in South Norwood at the Goat House bridge, route 75 has been curtailed short of Croydon for three consecutive weekends in November.
It is using the fairly new terminus at Elmers End.The route normally terminates at the Fairfield Halls which is roughly about four miles from this location.
Route 157 is also diverted on the same dates but is using a more localised diversion along South Norwood Hill to regain its route path in South Norwood.
Metrobus 858 an Scania /Optare Olympus is seen on the stand at Elmers End.

Lothian Buses
Volvo B5LH / Wright Gemini 3
557 - SA15VUH
Seen on route 34 at the Riccarton terminus by Heriot-Watt University.
Lothian's apparent decision to withdraw all their stacked colour screens in favour of simpler, single-screened crystal white displays was the one move I disagreed with during their Fleet of the Future changes in 2018. Up until I took this photo, refurbished and new vehicles have been the only to receive this treatment, receiving new Hanover screens (a rather controversial move in itself given Lothian's previous loyalty to Mobitec products) but they have since turned their attention to all vehicles with the colour screens. The early Volvo 7900s and Gemini 3s were slowly converted to full-white Mobitec displays, without their custom fonts and without the colour. I think it's a real shame because this is one of the things that made Lothian special and unique.
Here I made special effort to see the colour so thanks to the driver who put up the pink 'Part Route' as seen here, red 'Route Diverted' and yellow 'Limited Stop'.

When Stagecoach in South Wales's Cwmbran depot received the 15 Alexander Dennis E30Ds to "gold" specification last winter, most of the 60-plate Enviro300s transferred to other depots - Porth received nine and Blackwood three, whilst only two remained at Cwmbran.
Those at Porth have found a home on Service 132 (Maerdy-Ferndale-Porth-Pontypridd-Treforest-Cardiff), which is also due to receive the "gold" treatment in the next few months. 27692 has even received route branding for the service. However, despite this, she has become rather nomadic of late, turning up at Aberdare, Merthyr Tydfil and Blackwood depots,
This early October 2016 shot of her was taken as she reverses off stand at Newport's Market Square when operating for Blackwood on Service 50 (Newport-Caerphilly-Ystrad Mynach-Bargoed). Bringing up the rear is Alexander Dennis E20D 37170, which is one of three to receive branding for interworked Services 50 and 56 last year.
Oct. 17, 2021: The "Route 66 Monument" with a 1950s tail fin and lights, the sculpture sits on the west end of Route 66 in Tucumcari, New Mexico. The 1997 sculpture is by Artist Tom Coffin.
168001 at Rickmansworth, en route to Aylesbury back in 2013. These 4 car, 100mph units are most frequently used on the GW-GC mainline to Banbury and Birmingham, so to see one on the local service was, at the time, unusual. The design on these is somewhere between the earlier Networker and the later Turbostar types. Had some very very spirited running running on these, that are now over 20 years old.
