Hi gang,

I was just perusing the TfL Buses "Upcoming Service Changes" page and I
noticed that route 705 (Paddington - Liverpool Street, Limited Stop, via
Victoria and London Bridge) is to be withdrawn from the 21st of May.
Last buses will be the 1950 from Paddington (due into Liverpool Street
at 2103) and 2015 from Liverpool Street (due into Paddington at 2130) on
the 20th.

It's a shame to see it go as it provided a useful service, though the
timetable was never particularly taxing, or frequent...

Serves it right for carrying a Green Line route number.
