Observations In Richmond And Ealing.

Hello, and welcome to my second Richmond post. To start the post I have an odd working on route 391.

An observation on route R68.

The iBus screen on route 65.

These appear so frequently on route 190 yet these double deckers are supposed to be on route E2. Maybe I should call this an ODDSERVATION!


These also appear frequently on route H37 yet they are meant to be on the 423. This could be another oddservation.



I then went for a walk by the river, and after that to Richmond Bus Station.

This could be another oddservation on route 65!

Here is a 337 which might need some maintenance work.

A line up of buses at Richmond.

Another oddservation on route 490.

Here we have a not in service SP.

An observation on route 493.

I then went walked to George Street, where I was waiting for a 190.


An observation on route H22.

The timetable of route N22.




An observation on route 371.

An observation on route R68.

The iBus indicator said my 190 was over 30 minutes but it only came in 5 minutes!

An observation on route 493.


Here is DPS 704 on route 419.

I think this looks quite weird. London United's new seat moquette is on one of the old dart pointers. Refurbishment? Very likely!!

This could be another so-called oddservation.

Here is E157 on route 337.

An observation on route R70.

An observation on route 65.


Here is OT15 on route H37.



An observation on route H22.


I then got on my 190 to Chiswick, caught an E3 and took some pictures from the top deck. That is pretty much the end of my journey. Enjoy my pictures below!

Finally, the iBus screen on my E3. 


If you want to know more about this, then scroll down until you find my A Bus Journey On Route E3 post which shows an extract from the route. I will say no more.

A Bus Journey On Route E3.

Hello, if you don't have much time to watch this video, I suggest you come and watch it another time. I enjoyed my journey on the E3 (I went from Chiswick to West Ealing) although the sun was in my eyes most of the time. I decided not to film the diversion because it's not the proper route and I wanted to enjoy it rather than concentrate on filming during that section. The same reason applies to my route 65 post which will be soon.

          KEY FACTS ABOUT ROUTE E3:

  • Operator: First Centrewest
  • Garage: Greenford
  • Types Of Buses: Enviro 400 (10.1m).
  • PVR: 27
  • Route: Greenford Broadway to Chiswick, Edensor Road
  • Frequency: 6 to 12 mins
