The 108, from Stratford to Lewisham, goes through the Blackwall
Tunnel. It has to use single deckers because of the clearances in the
northbound tunnel.


In the "good old days" the 108 ran from Bromley-by-Bow to Crystal
Palace, with specially designed STLs with domed roofs and reinforced
tyres for going through the tunnel (now the northbound, then the only one).
