Thank you Graham, for this ride. My wife and I have done it so many times visiting our daughter and son-in-law when they lived in East Dulwich, using the Dunstans Road stop. We could never enjoy the journey this way as we had many hairy moments trying to get to King's Cross for our fixed time time Leeds bound train, even though we thought sufficient time had been allowed to get us there comfortably. When the bus pulled out of Trafalgar Road onto Old Kent Road we could see that the traffic had filled the road - and this was early Sunday evening. It was always touch and go, but always made the train - just.

Thanks Guy - it was very quiet on this day
63 drivers are very fast and definitely know how to thrash!
I'd forgotten how residential the Kings Cross area is... from about 25:00 onwards there are many houses and flats along the route.
It has improved since the bad old days of the 80s. The N1C area is very expensive.
