Ultimately the Leaside Travel private hire fleet would wind up at the Edmonton garage that County Bus opened when they won the 34 from.....Leaside of all people. They also run the 19 once again, following the transfer of the 259 from Edmonton to Tottenham.
According to the LOTS newsletters, the 34 was awarded to Leaside then reassigned to Lea Valley at Edmonton, the current site replaced Gibbs Road from 27th September 1997, the Leaside Travel fleet relocated there from 27th October and they took over the 34 from 8th November - the 102 and 329 took 5 extra buses between them M-F as part of their new contracts - the 329 to cover the withdrawal of the W2. In January 1998 the 298 moved from Palmers Green to Wood Green and the 125 from Grey Green at Stamford Hill to Palmers Green. In other words, the 34 was transferred to Edmonton to make room for the 125 and the higher allocation on the 329 (between them that's 12 buses, the 34 used 11 x M, the W2 used 9 x M and the 298 4 x Dart). Edmonton was transferred from what was now Arriva Herts & Essex to Arriva London North from 3rd October 1998. I'm not sure what happened to pay and conditions.
