The 800s came quite late, for "new town" services. But were there
any actually assigned in the south? Wasn't it just the "Stevenage
Superbus" that used 8xx route numbers in anger?

I forget where I got the information. There is a sketchy reference at
http://www.eplates.info/805s.html

And didn't the 1930's Inter-statioN 1-and-a-half-deckers have a
dedicated range?

Pass.
