London Buses Route 60
London Buses route 60 is a Transport for London contracted bus route in London, England. Running between Old Coulsdon and Streatham, it is operated by Arriva London. History Route 60 was introduced in September 1982 as a replacement in part for routes 118 and 130, linking Clapham Common with Croydon. In 1998, the route was extended south to Old Coulsdon, replacing route 50 and curtailed northbound to Streatham. Capital Logistics was due to start operating route 60 from September 1998, however the new low floor buses specified were not ready in time.

It was intended that the route would then be taken on by Horsham based Omnibus London, but two days before this could take plac ...
