 Travel London's operations expanded substantially when the London bus operations of Tellings Golden Miller were added to its former Connex operations and other tender successes. The TGM operations also included its network of bus routes in Surrey. Still in TGM livery is MPD Dart 325 (KN52NFO) at Kingston Bus Station in January 2006. |
 A former TGM prestige service is the 441 into Heathrow from Englefield Green. They shared the silver based livery of First Beeline's 75 from Slough and Carousel's A40 from High Wycombe. Dart 504 (R504SJM) is seen at Heathrow Bus Station in October 2005. |
 Seen at SHOWBUS international 2006 is 331 (KN52NFX) an MPD Dennis Dart in advertising livery but painted with the new outer London fleet colours of Travel London. |
 |
 Numbered into National Express' common fleet numbering scheme is early Dart SLF/Pointer 8709 (R509SJM) seen at Heathrow Central Bus Station in summer 2007. |
|
 A year later and the bus that was delivered new to Travel London as DP1 (LJ56ONH) has become 8001. Like 8709 above, the bus is on the 441 which has lost its silver BAA livery. Likewise First's Citaro services had adopted a deep blue and in 2009 Carousel's adopted a version of their fleet red livery. Shortly after this photo was taken, the operation was rebranded Travel Surrey in outer London. Expectations were raised that the National Express branding adopted in Birmingham and Dundee would follow, but the entire operation was sold shortly after. |
