As Tony has informed you several times, a few Saturday morning journeys on the 60 are on a 957 running board, and so this working is not really noteworthy as it is scheduled and normal (although I accept it is still off-route!).

In addition, as many people have now stated there is no peak period during the weekends. If there were such a thing as an 'AM' peak on a Saturday, I'd imagine (at least in terms of number of vehicles, and therefore logically I'd guess number of passengers) it would be after 1130.
