Default Bus stops with Consecutively numbered services

Hi

Does anyone know of a London bus stop that is served by three (or more)
consecutively numbered routes - ie 145,146 and 147 stops there?

Thanks in advance

Rob Smith


How about R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6, R7, R8 and R9 on Station Road in
Orpington...

And taking up this theme you may well get consecutive "B" routes in
Bexleyheath Broadway and "H" routes in both Harrow and Hounslow and "K"
routes in parts of Kingston / Surbiton.

Don't think you get the W8, W9 and W10 together in Enfield but it's very
close. Unfortunately the W13, W14, W15 and W16 no longer all stop on
the same side of Leytonstone station although they used to.

You might get the 6,7 and 8 together on the stretch of Oxford St near
John Lewis but I doubt they'd all be on the same stop given the
differing destinations. It would work if the 8 still ran to Willesden!

We've got an odd thing near me in Church Road and Pield Heath Road;
several stops serving U1, U3, and U5; up at Hillingdon Hospital you could add
in U7, but also U4 and U2.

Thanks everyone, hopefully letter prefixed services will satisfy the
bloke I was arguing about this with.
