I'd put my money on said bus being 542. The only other yellow MPDs in the fleet are 564 (Saltmeadows), 565 (Consett) and 618/9 (Consett).
With Rainton Bridge being more commonly associated with Deptford rather than Saltmeadows or Consett, it would make sense for it to be 542. That said, 564 has been missing from the 27X lately - could be related? I haven't seen her in either Saltmeadows or Sunderland Road either.
