Can't account for anyone else though, other than myself - fair to say I was only on the road when walking away from Park Lane...

Still a little peeved that a Deptford bus driver took a photograph of the enthusiast mentioned above, and he later took the piss out of him too. Driver told me that he hated his photo being taken as well - called it un-fucking-lucky after that incident and made sure I got a few clear shots of him driving the Streetlites... Not that the mentioned enthusiast had a clue about it, being all excited about the new buses. I'd name and shame the driver if I could!

For now, however, "durham bus man" on Flickr got an ace shot of him:

Claimed he hadn't even had driver familiarisation when he was relieving another driver of his duties! Fair to say I avoided 5371 as much as possible on Sunday - wouldn't like to put my life in his hands if he's not taken Deptford up on the offer of familiarisation...

Shame really. It only takes a few bad apples to give people a bad experience of what I'd say is one of the most enthusiast friendly bus operators in the UK.

I'm also surprised that this driver has had time to get out of his cab and get off the bus to take a photo of the said enthusiast.
