Greetings,

Does anybody know what the longest and shortest distance is between bus
stops here in London?

I also wonder where there is the most remote bus stop in the Greater
London area?
I think you're going to have to be more specific before a decent answer
can be given.

For example, the 100 bus on Cable Street technically has a stand outside
St George's Town Hall, and a stop immediately adjacent (look on
countdown.tfl.gov.uk). They both have separate entries and timetables,
but does this count? I would argue not!

Similarly, you didn't mention that the bus stops need to be on the same
route, or that they be TfL contracted bus services. It can easily be
argued that the former is a bit of a nonsequitor, but the latter maybe
not so - consider the Oxford Tube from Shepherds Bush to Hillingdon....

Finally, define "remote" - is that from other TfL transport (in which
case isn't there a TfL bus that goes out to Slough or some such?), or
from civilisation in some form?
