Over the past few decades since the privatisation of London’s Buses, a number of companies have operated services around the Capital. For a multitude of reasons, be it bankruptcy, takeover by a large operator or just the company ceasing to trade, some of these companies are no longer in existence.
In this section of the website, you will find our images of some of these operators working various routes utilising several different classes of vehicle at several locations.

Blue Triangle
Blue Triangle was well established in the fields of rail replacement work, private hires, and emergency coverage (including routes 60, T32 and 367), as well as a heritage bus operation. In August 2002, Blue Triangle took over route 185 at short notice after London Easylink ceased trading. The company, owned by the renowned Roger Wright operated from a garage in Rainham.
Having built up a sizeable operation, Roger Wright sold the TfL contract work to Go-Ahead on 27 June 2007, retaining the preserved bus fleet in his own ownership and founding the London Bus Company.

East Thames Buses
East Thames Buses was a trading name for London Buses Limited, an arms-length subsidiary of Transport for London. The operator came into being to take over the Routes 108, 128, 129, 132, 150 and 180 run by the failed Harris Bus operation in December 1999. Further additions came when August 2002 saw Routes 42 and 185 added due to the collapse of London Easylink. Buses initially operated from Ash Grove Garage and Harris Buses’ Belvedere Garage before a new site was opened for all routes at Mandela Way, Southwark in late 2005.
East Thames Buses ceased operation after being sold to the Go Ahead Group on 3rd October 2009.

Transdev London Sovereign
London Sovereign can trace its roots back to independent Borehamwood Travel Services who in 1993 won its biggest London Buses contract, to operate route 13 with leased AEC Routemasters.
In August 1994, Borehamwood Travel Services was sold to the Blazefield Group’s Sovereign subsidiary, with the two operations merged as Sovereign London. On 3 November 2002, the business was sold to Transdev, and renamed Transdev London Sovereign.
Transdev merged with Veolia Transport in March 2011 and London Sovereign continued in this ownership until being sold to RATP Group in March 2014.

Transdev London United
London United commenced operating on 1 April 1989, as one of 12 operating subsidiaries of London Buses in preparation for privatisation. In November 1994 it was sold in a management buyout.
In August 1997 London United was sold to Transdev. In April 2006 London United (along with London Sovereign) were rebranded with the Transdev name and logo, although both companies continued as separate legal entities.
In 2009, Transdev’s majority owner commenced negotiating with Veolia Environnement to merge Transdev with Veolia Transport. As part of the resulting agreement, it was agreed that the RATP Group, which had a minority shareholding in Transdev, would take over ownership of some of Transdev’s operations in lieu of cash payment.
This resulted in London United transferring to the RATP Group, with the agreement taking effect in March 2011, and RATP Group renamed its newly acquired business London United.
