🚌: Alexander-Dennis Enviro 200

37556 seen here back on the 339, the route it was new for. Its former Enviro 200s have all made a comeback after the Metrocity EVs were temporarily pulled from service, due to water damage in the chargers or something apparently.
Alongside this, an interesting mix of emergency covers have been used - such as E200MMCs (a first for the route!) and even a few BZLs, though the BZLs didn’t last long as they couldn’t run the full route due to length restrictions, leaving Shadwell without buses for a few hours at one point! The route’s currently running fully with Enviro200s for the time being.

Following the G1’s rapid conversion to E100EVs, the loaned Enviro200s that had been covering the route have became redundant. And by surprise, two of them have found their way out to Beddington Cross, with 8252 making a return to its old route, the S3, and 8523 debuting on the 315 on 16/08/25.
8252 is pictured here working the 315 on its second day in BC service, seen turning into the stands at its new terminus, Springfield Hospital.
🚌: Alexander-Dennis Enviro 100EV
ℹ️: YX25ODL 1057 - Transport UK
📷: Springfield Hospital
1057 is seen here on its third day of service working the G1, pictured around the recently restored Springfield Hospital double run en route to Battersea Shaftesbury Estate. Transport UK have become the second operator in London to debut the new E100EV type, with the vast majority of their batch entering service just 3–4 days ago.
