FRV. Go Ahead London Route 1. Canada Water - Hampstead Heath. MCV Evoseti MHV17 (BU16 OZE)

Todays video is an FRV on the, recently extended, route 1 from Canada Water to Hampstead Heath. With the route 168 being withdrawn, this route was extended to cover part of the route. The extension has now made the route more useful and much more longer lol. This is probably the longest FRV (video wise) on this channel. Longest FRV (journey wise) is still the 425 with it being an hour and 55 mins. I decided to do a dark visual for this route since it would look pretty good and I’m glad I did. Although the traffic was sooo long. It took 20 minutes to get to the second stop. As a result, the bus obviously got packed because of how delayed we were. To add to it, the driver change at Waterloo still took so long. The drivers were just talking to each other and wasting more of our time. It got to the point where the people on the bus started having a go at the driver lol. The second driver was actually pretty good and he actually got a break at Hampstead lol. Our bus arrived at Hampstead Heath 40 minutes late which is actually crazy. Idk how we didn’t curtail but that’s a W. Sorry about all the traffic :( Feel free to skip it lol. Although the route was extremely long, I did enjoy the route and I’d definitely give it an 8/10.

Canada Water, Surrey Quays, South Bermondsey, Bricklayers Arms, Elephant & Castle, Waterloo, Aldwych, Holborn, Russell Square, Euston, Mornington Crescent, Camden Town, Chalk Farm, Belsize Park, Hampstead Heath

This route is long enough why extend it again it better of it 168 because it not long it easier to get to Hampstead heath without waiting longer

[@user-ck1ej6nw2d]

Now they just need to extend the N1 to HH (I dont want to change for the N5)

[@DaGoofyPresident]

N1 is long as hell it probably not get extended

[@1390beam]

[@DaGoofyPresident]

What about 468

[@trainlagged]

@@DaGoofyPresident nowhere near

[@DaGoofyPresident]

What about N199

[@zeldalegend1822]

​@TrollbiYT100 Well if there was no traffic then I don't think the route will as long as it is it should at least be near an hour and a half
