Monday 11th February ~ Deep into Winter

It was snowing as I headed across Finsbury Park to the bus station where I boarded hybrid Gemini WHV20 on the 19 to Green Park in the usual way. After a coffee I boarded Enviro400 no.9543 on the C2 at Piccadilly (Down Street) for a ride, I settled down nicely in the front seat and decided to go all the way to it's terminus at Parliament Hill Fields.


A pair of Enviro400's, led by 9539, at the Parliament Hill Fields terminus of the C2

After a wintry walk around Parliament Hill I headed back on another C2, doing the honours this time was 9539. I took it all the way to Hyde Park Corner. From there I caught Vyking VLE15 on the 9 to Strand (Southampton Street) and after another coffee it was onto Enviro400 TE912 on the 91, I had intended to catch this to at least Holloway, possibly all the way to Crouch End. However it decided to terminate at Kings Cross. It was rush hour now and did hit heavy traffic around Upper Woburn Place and Euston, due to roadworks on Eversholt Street, and got held up so this could have been why. My final move then was aboard Gemini WVN15 on the 259 from Kings Cross to Manor House.
