![]() "Richard J." wrote in message . uk... Reports in the Evening Standard and The Times say that the two "heritage" routes on which Routemasters will run will be based on the central sections of routes 9 and 15, as follows: Piccadilly Circus - Trafalgar Square - Strand - Fleet Street -Ludgate Hill - Cannon Street - Eastcheap - Tower Hill. Royal Albert Hall - Knightsbridge - Piccadilly - Trafalgar Square - Strand - Aldwych. The buses are expected to run every 15 minutes between about 09:30 and 18:30, 7 days a week. TfL say that Travelcards will be valid on the two routes, and that standard fares will be charged. Companies were being invited to tender for the routes. http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article...672228,00.html -- Richard J. (to e-mail me, swap uk and yon in address) Sounds like it's going to end up like the San Francisco trams. Where the two tram routes left (from the city centre area) are mainly for tourists who want to ride the SF icon. A half an hour or more wait for a tram is almost guaranteed but worth it for a tourist. and forget starting your journey at any other place appart from the terminating stops. Shame really! ANDY |
