Last Wednesday, I decided to meet up with a friend and go and have a ride on Buses Etc's route 479, from Guildford to Epsom. We met at Epsom, did some bus spotting there whilst we waited for the 293 to Epsom to pick up the 479. So we arrived in Epsom, and waited for the bus to arrive, which turned out to be S25 (formerly London General PVL175). Around 90 minutes later, we arrived in Guildford, and after having refuelled with a Sandwich and a cup of Tea in Pret, we boarded the 15:30 479 back to Epsom, which was S26 (formerly London Central PVL178). All was well until Bookham Station, where the bus was held due to a water leak. We had to wait 1 hour for another 479 to Epsom. In the meantime, J80 turned up and I throught this would be the replacement bus, however this was held here, as it had started overheating. Finally, at 17:00, S23 (formerly London General PVL195) turned up, and we boarded this to Epsom. At Epsom, we boarded a Scania Omnicity to Morden, where I went home. Overall a good day. Thanks for reading!
