PL1, where PL stands for Lea Valley Leisure Centre... [1]

A man's vehicle is a symbol of his manhood.
That's why my vehicle's the Piccadilly Line -
It's the size of a county and it comes every two and a half minutes


Was that the route with the bike attachment bus? does it still run?

A strange one is the G1 (Streatham-Battersea) where the G stands for St
Georges Hospital.
What does the P in P4 (Brixton-Lewisham) stand for?

& one other why did the southern bit of the Station Link get 705?



Originally it was going to be 900 - in the Mobility Bus sequence.

It has been numbered 705, as

7XX - limited stop sequence (only other service is the 726)

X05 - ties in with 205.
