Welcome to the second of this two-part review of the 2021 operations of Go-Ahead Metrobus. The video was shot between July and September (during a summer that provided rather poor light conditions much of the time) and covers routes 21, 318, 358, 359, 403, 420, 434, 455, 460, 463, 480, E10, R1, R2, R3, R4, R6, R7, R8, R9, R10, R11, S1 and X26. I regret that, despite two visits to the Orpington area, I was unable to track down the infrequent R5 (although I had more luck with its partner, the R10). Also, I am sorry that coverage of the splendid X26 is so limited - I have seen X26s in various parts of south-west London, but rarely had the opportunity to film them. As previously, all vehicles were new to Metrobus unless indicated otherwise.
Footage was shot in the following locations: Anerley, Banstead, Bromley, Coulsdon, Croydon, Crystal Palace, Eastfields, Epsom, Great Tattenham, Green Street Green, Keston, Mitcham, Orpington, Purley, Sanderstead, Sidcup and Sutton.
I have finished filming for the year, but still in production are videos on Arriva London South and Stagecoach Selkent which will be published in due course.
Thanks for watching.
PS - in the tradition of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, there’s a post-credit scene that you’ll miss if you leave the cinema too soon!
