London Central route N136: Chislehurst, War Memorial - Oxford Circus
Approaching Westminster Cathedral (N)
London Central started their new contract to route N136 from New Cross (NX) on 27 May 2017. Existing hybrid buses from route 436 introduced the route to the Go-Ahead subsidiary, most commonly WHVs.
I hadn't noticed anything other than 61-reg WHVs on the N136 until this 66-reg flagged up on LVF. Although disappointing to arrive without blinds but with an infamous paper display instead, it is not a surprise the N136 is not fitted as the vehicle is one of many to have transferred from London General to London Central following the closure of Mandela Way Bus Garage in July.
The odd-working is pictured zooming along Victoria Street, interestingly away from the bus stop it is approaching: from Victoria Station, the N136 almost has to complete a circle via Grosvenor Place and Bressenden Place to access the southern part of Victoria Street en route Westminster.
