Changes In Stratford

 Hello, routes 339,D8 and 97 all experienced changes to their routes. Plus a new route came into existence (N205). I covered them all (kind of) and I've got at least one picture of each change.

  • Route 339: Extended from Stratford City to Leytonstone via Leyton
  • Route D8: Extended from Stratford City to Stratford International
  • Route 97: Rerouted via Stratford International Station instead of Angel Lane
  • Route N205: New route running from Paddington-Leyton, Downsell Road using 'SP's' from the current 205 allocation
This is amazing! A rare working,and this DML was standing in Stratford City Bus Station (the OLD terminus) which is only meant to be served by routes 97,241 and 588 because of the 339/D8 extensions. The 588 will be discontinued on the 14 December 2013 and the 388 will terminate at Stratford City from this day.


 I can say I covered the N205 because I have a picture of the timetable (I think it counts). I rode routes 339/D8 there and back (the D8 is only one stop).

 I boarded my 339 to Leytonstone.




                                                       Blind change:







 The 339 will be extended to Whipps Cross on the 14 December 2013 and the Whipps Cross display is on the current blinds. Annoyingly I couldn't get a picture with the Whipps Cross display due to me taking the picture too early.


Here is a 97 near Stratford International.




 Finally,I will show how the D8 buses turn around ready to go back to Crossharbour. I have a range of pictures below:




It waits at the stand and then turns right to start the long journey to the Docklands. Thanks for reading!
