The 140 is one of London’s 4th busiest with 13,335,108 journeys per year, even so the last (N)140 of the day was so full, it had to skip passengers (7:29). Apologies for no cards, I am very time limited at the moment.
Decisions like this make no sense. If the 278, N140 & X140 are supposed to cover the 140, then those three routes would be completely pointless, since they would be quickly packed considering the 140 is already a really busy route like you've mentioned. The same thing goes for the 266/218/306 situation aswell. Awesome visual!
@ML_ldnz460 if the 266 is unreliable between Acton and Hammersmith, wouldn't that make the 218 kinda unreliable too? I mean, wouldn't it be worse for a single decker route to replace an unreliable double decker route?
The 266 takes about 80 mins e2e, the 218 *should* take 40. The 218 and 306 together should sort out the reliability on the Acton to Hammersmith, and the 207 also runs between Acton Vale and Acton Centre
BusesInLondon yes, somehow it needs to be a bit different to N140 but still serving it’s main stops. However currently follows N140 to Harrow and then the 182 until Sudbury And Harrow Road so it would be better if it was rerouted via H14/H12 or 182

In my perspective the reason corona started is becoz of TfL making the 278 X140 and N140
But great visual
Very nice. Great quality
Thanks, filmed in 2018
N18 should be diverted to serve all the 182 stops from Harrow Weald Bus Garage to Harrow instead of following N140.
Maybe follow h14 routing and the h18/12 routing to harrow weald?

Excellent video
Thanks!
What's the song in this if you dont mind me asking?
Both Tobu songs
first and 3rd is tobu - sound of goodbye 2nd is tobu - life
Thanks
When you said you're against it you could just take the 278 which is what I would do but, I would probably just take x140.
Yes but the 278 is not as frequent as the old 140
I thought N140 starts tonight
It technically ran for the last few years. N140 used to run in the early 2000s until the 24 hour route came along
I see
Nice video! Very clear on the camera. I can tell why you’re against it.
Against what?
The changes. I saw it on the desc 😂
