PRV. Go Ahead London Route 1. Surrey Quays - Hampstead Heath. Wright Gemini 3 WHV155 (BV66 VLD)

Today’s video is an PRV on the 1, recently extended, route 1 from Surrey Quays to Hampstead Heath (Because Canada Water is closed till April).With the route 168 being withdrawn, this route was extended to cover part of the route. The extension has now made the route more useful and much more longer lol. Longest FRV (journey wise) is still this route being the longest with it being an hour and 35 mins. I decided to do a Midday visual for this route since it would look pretty good and I’m glad I did. Although the traffic was sooo long. It took 10 minutes to get to the second stop. As a result, the bus obviously got empty after Waterloo because of how long this was. To add to it, the driver change at Russel Square still took so long. The drivers were just talking to each other and wasting more of our time. It got to the point where the people on the bus started having a go at the driver lol. The second driver was actually pretty good and he actually got a break at Hampstead lol. Our bus arrived at Hampstead Heath 17 minutes late which is actually crazy. Idk how we didn’t curtail but that’s a W. Sorry about all the traffic :( (I made a mistake at Waterloo Station/Tension Way because it’s
Stop K) Btw Feel free to skip it lol. Although the route was extremely long, I did enjoy the route and I’d definitely give it an 7/10.
