It was involved in an incident earlier today which resulted in the cancellation of the service it was operating (later replaced by another bus) - see this Tweet for confirmation.

Hope it was just a passenger being ill rather than a 'crash' incident. Couldn't have happened to a nicer looking bus like.

It's properly transferred, but 4897 is just a float vehicle so can in theory transfer to any location without needing to be replaced as it's just an extra bus in the fleet.

At the moment, it's covering for Deptford's Mercs which are being repainted for services 35/36.
