While looking at the bus reliability stats (from the TfL website) for
low frequency bus routes, I noticed that there's no 2004 figure for
East Thames Buses. Are they still going? If not, when did they stop?


They're still going strong if their buses on the 185 at Victoria are
anything to go by. I noticed that their legal ownership panel says
they're owned by London Buses Ltd so they may be listed under that
moniker. In any case, they remain the wholly-owned subsidiary of TfL
so perhaps that exempts them from the figures.

No, the file I was looking at:
http://www.tfl.gov.uk/buses/about/pe...s/quarterly-fr
equency-percent-early.pdf
shows them as 70.6% on time in the June to September quarter of 2003,
but it gives no figure for the corresponding 2004 quarter.

Also absent for 2004 is the abysmal figure for TGM Dartford, as it has
been absorbed into the main TGM figure (as has TGM Middlesex). So are
the figures for Arriva London NE (absorbed into Arriva N London) and
National Express.
