Bus variety at Waltham Cross in April 2024

[@shihanthetrainspotter]

Great video I come here quiet alot when I’m around in London just to visit it’s a great area especially the shopping centres

[@BristolRE]

Thanks, it doesn't have a much variety of buses as to what it used to

Nice to see one of the first clips with an OME on the 317

[@BristolRE]

I find them very bland to look at

[@JackBean-io9ro]

@@BristolREagreed but from what ive seen they can move

[@stephenhyland4256]

Nice video. I see Metroline are going into Manchester now as part of the Bee Network

[@BristolRE]

Thanks, yes, I saw that too

[@oasisblackcurrant]

those electroliner on 317 are beautiful!

[@BristolRE]

They do look good

[@londonbusfanrex]

Yeah but sadly it’s temporary it’s going to 83 soon

[@TheTransportHub17]

Very nice Peter. Always a good location.

[@BristolRE]

Thanks, yes it is

[@aaronsmith9209]

I can't be the only one who thinks it doesn't really make much sense that Waltham Cross is where everything seems to terminate. It's quite small for a bus station and some of the TFL and country routes are pretty short journeys due to boundaries. The neighbouring areas are fairly built up too. As interesting as the variety is, would be good to see the services reorganised and everything under one company. Seen the 317 speeding past Goff's Oak and Cuffley to and from Potters Bar Garage every now and then, wishing it would stop there someday. Good video though.

[@BristolRE]

Thanks, yes, all those wasted journeys.

Good video Peter, Waltham cross kind of doesn’t feel like you’re in London (well yes it isn’t but you are still just in the M25 so really yes london but not in a governed London borough) that you have tfl and non tfl routes working alongside each other. I wish we had more places like this Peter. Good one anyway. I did enjoy this video

[@BristolRE]

Thanks. Technically you are outside of the M25 as you cross over the M25 before entering WX

[@easygo1477]

@@BristolRE Yeah you’re just out of the M25 actually

[@fearless_huseyin]

Good video Peter!

[@BristolRE]

Thanks

[@billyandrews6342]

317's allocation seems to have changed so many times in the last two years I've started to loose track. I think it was TE's then WHV's, OME's and now WDE's

[@BristolRE]

The contract when they won it from us was supposed to be for electrics

[@NorthLondonbuses-qm8hs]

You mean VWH’s and along that they used VMH’s and now the WDE they use cause most OME’s are faulty as the 134 mainly had to use hybrids and some OME’s on the route

[@walthamwalker]

Good video welcome back

[@BristolRE]

Thanks

[@londonbusfanrex]

Why does AE24 work the 327 almost everyday.. It has never done anything else when not being on 327

[@BristolRE]

No idea

[@LondonBusandTrainEnthusiast]

My local routes are 121, W6, 299, 298. (Meadway in Southgate is my nearest bus stop). I really don't like the service Sullivan Buses have been giving recently. *Just saying.

[@BristolRE]

They've had a lot of criticism recently

[@LondonBusandTrainEnthusiast]

@@BristolRE Indeed especially for route 298.
