Details: Information on bus company service vehicles through the 1990s and 2000s is a bit sketchy. The privatised companies were not inclined to make lists publicly available, and few people seem to have been interested anyway. There was also the issue that many of the vehicles were operated anonymously. A list from Metroline was eventually obtained and this showed that they had operated a couple of batches of Peugeot 106 cars in the late 1990s, at least some of which had Metroline logos on their red livery. James Mair was one of a small number of people who made a point of photographing any service vehicles they came across, and his photo of P972HEW (new in November 1996) was taken at Northolt bus stand. In the background is one of the pioneering LLW class (the first low-floor bus to be used in London) and a Carlyle-bodied Dennis Dart in Metroline red/blue livery.
