I can remember the GNE Metroriders weaving through Washington.That'll never happen again, the operator would have to run 50% more buses just to pick up 20% extra passengers.
When I started at Arriva they had numerous minibuses plowing through estates whilst the big buses that went past the outskirts of said estates were carrying fresh air, the penny finally dropped at the silliness of doing this around about 2010ish........
