Fantastic video of route 298. Yes, and these Ex-RATP Scanias, now with UNO, are the last batch of the remaining Scanias in TFL service now, but how longer for as this is 2024, which thought is also scary. Route 217 has also changed group, but not Metroline this time. 217 changed to Arriva London. I do miss Sullivan with TFL, as it’s now staying with Commercial.
