    The fact these have been around for 6 years and we are only seeing more of them now astonishes me

      Seemed popular early 2020s. There is a new ev model this year from Alexander Dennis, the manufacturer. But it will probably be a few years till we see it in London.

    sounds different to any bus i've heard. doesn't sound as nice as an RE, or B10BLE though. any reason for the lack of seats?

    • @AndyCreepy27
      @AndyCreepy27 2 года назад +1

      It's mainly to do with the high passenger loadings on the 507/521, they're predominantly commuter routes between Waterloo and Victoria / London Bridge. Better to have more standing room at the front to allow quicker access on and off the bus, and from experience both routes are heavily used by passengers.

      @@AndyCreepy27: Indeed, if you know about those routes, I'm sure they both used to be bendy buses (and very few people will use a long portion of the routes imo)

      The reason for that is because the 521 and 507 used be red Arrow routes so you would have standing people and sitting people. I have no idea why though.

      Urban roads in London are terrible because they must constantly be ripped up to fix gas plumbing, water services, sewage services, electricity or internet whenever any of those services fail or need component replacement. Also, some places have heating pipes. Unfortunately, they are not located in utility tunnels like in modern cities, because London is an ancient city.
