Buses don't have the route number painted on them permanently!

They do sometimes. See 3rd photo down at:

Another lesson that usenet is the place to weed out edge cases. Well done!

Not so fast Mr Perry! ITYF there are many examples of where route specific
branding has been used on buses around the country - so it's not really an
edge case. No current examples from London readily spring to mind,

I don't know if it still does, but it was not so long ago that the 38 had
a logo painted on it - it had a little heart in the middle. Like so:

The 38 was my night bus home when i first moved to London (2003?). I never
had any romantic experiences on it, but i did end up feeling quite fond of
it.
