just a thought, what is the;longest bys route in bus excepting
anything that goes to the airport?

Stage buses I assume.

I don't know the route number, but I believe that it is about 18 miles.

There used to be one that did Southend to Bow, via Brentwood and Romford
(ie following the railway line). That's about 40 miles.
