| Details: Although the Honda motorbikes used by London Buses appear to have departed by the end of 2004, the two-wheeled gap in the service vehicle fleet was then filled by three of these Piaggio Skipper scooters. Acquired by bus company Transdev, they originally wore a plain blue livery as seen in this picture taken at Hatch End in May 2005. James was able to determine that they were in use by route controllers from Transdev's Harrow garage. It would appear that two of the registrations quoted on this site (and in SUP24C) are incorrect. LG54LGJ and LG54LGK should be amended to LK54LGJ and LK54LGK respectively. | ||

| Ray | I remember being on a 301 in 1960 in Tring being waived down by an Inspector on a motor bike. He jumped on, checked tickets and then off he went! Note: Edited by Ray, 03/06/07, 17:51. | Sun 03/06/07, 17:51 |
| Kim Rennie | Of course Country Bus inspectors used motorbikes in the 1940s (at least) so there's nothing new in this | Sat 02/06/07, 03:04 |
