You mean the 56 currently in service, rising to 300 through this year, or
the 100% of new buses TfL will be bringing into service from next year?

Well apparently "in service" means sitting in the garage. I've certainly
never seen one on the streets and going by some of the photos they should
be pretty hard to miss with that huge lump on the roof.

What lump on the roof of hybrid buses is that then?

(The newest ones don't feature the green leaf livery either.)
