Shock News For London<\/span><\/p>\n On Saturdays, for example,l it runs every ten minutes.<\/p>\n <\/p><\/span><\/div>\n … and an x140<\/span> (mall “x”!) now\u00a0 runs limited stop to Heathrow. So along the same roads you have a 140 calling at all stops and an x140<\/span> (small “x”) …<\/p>\n <\/p><\/span><\/div>\n But the common sense is limited. SL4, SL6 and SL8 are not part of the “loop” – they are two existing limited stop services (607\/SL8 and X68\/SL6) plus a new and as yet not running SL4.<\/p>\n Of these SL8 (DARK BLUE<\/span>) and SL6 (PINK<\/span> dashed) do impinge on the he loop, but SL4 (BLACK<\/span>) goes nowhere near it. Would it not have been better to maintain clear brand awareness and number the segments of the real Loop SL1 to SL7 consecutively from “the gap”: and find something else to designate the palpably non-loop odd three?<\/p><\/span><\/div>\n The above was posted before yesterday’s route number change. but here a bus is showing 607.<\/p>\n So just a passing reminder …<\/p><\/span><\/div>\n … is a Nicholas Hawksmoor jobbie. Nick’s bust (below) was sculptured just after he had eaten three lemons!<\/p>\n fbb is extending Peterville Tunnel and on top of the earthworks will be the above property. A WW2 not-quite-Nissen hut has been rebuilt, refurbished and re-positioned on a brick built undercroft. The ex-<\/p><\/span>hut contains three bedrooms and a bathroom, The new base includes kitchen dining and lounge\u00a0facilities and is linked to the bedrooms by an internal staircase (not modelled, you couldn’t\u00a0 see it!). The external\u00a0stairs provide a quick route to and from the sundeck.<\/span><\/div>\n The new base of the model is bodged together from all sorts of bits in various boxes of clutter and costing very little.<\/p>\n The steps were a staircase from the interior if an old Hornby terraced house kit; the white fence is from Wills (a Peco company) and the cream fence was from a collection of bits given to fbb by a Seaton charity ship as unsaleable!<\/p><\/span><\/div>\n It shows line A (RED<\/span>) via Ralliement<\/span>.\u00a0<\/p><\/div>\n Clever tram students can guess the rest, but a 2023 map confirms our possible suspicions.<\/p>\n Line A is unchanged. Line B (BLUE<\/span>) joins A via Centre de Congres. Line C (GREEN<\/span>) takes the old Line A route via Ralliement.<\/p><\/div>\n … and turns right into Allee Francois Mitterand which is tram only.<\/p>\n At the next road junction it all happens. Where tram A used to come straight on towards the camera …<\/p>\n … there is now a three way junction …<\/p>\n … where route A is turning left and route B is coming from behind the camera to join it at the St George Universite stop which moved round the cotner from its previous location. (Confused.com? see maps above.) After the Centre de Congres stop …<\/p>\n Tram A turns right whilst B goes straight ahead.<\/p>\n Just a reminder!<\/p>\n Tram C, which uses Tram B tracks from the west and Tram A tracks to the south uses the old Tram A alignment via Ralliement.<\/p><\/div>\n … or even the Carto track map …<\/p>\n
