The main website is not showing that 4932 & 4936 have received route 5 branding which I noticed on Saturday.

P.S. The open day was good.

It's been like that for a while IIRC.

They debranded a few from the Soho Road, after the 5 started to receive branding. I heard it was to allow some versatility within the E400 allocation, now that a few has received some branding - how true that is, I'm not sure. However, it does make some sense to me.

Only 4967 and 4968 were debranded.

While driving behind 4749 the other day, I couldn't help but notice that (the rear display still isn't working and) the 82 & 87 to Victoria Park are advertised. The 82 doesn't serve Victoria Road, literally every 8* bus serves Victoria Park more directly than the 82 (the 80, 87 & 89 stopping right outside of it). If you want to get off on Waterloo Road and have a 5 minute walk to Victoria Park, that's fine, but it's in no way direct
