Watford to Uxbridge.<\/span><\/p>\n And a reminder that our 2024 321 terminates at Watford Hospital and we need to change to a 322 which has come through from Hemel Hempstead.<\/p>\n But the 1977 service 321 ran all the way to Uxbridge also calling at …<\/p><\/div>\n Once upon a time it looked like this!\u00a0<\/p><\/div>\n … which we met in yesterday’s blog.
