Also added fairly recently, a new Historical Section, containing an 81C timetable from 1931 and the rail replacement service between Finchley and Edgware, as valid in 1940. Hopefully the first of many - thanks to those who have supplied the scanned files. Also fairly new to the site - click here for a complete set of Green Line timetables from 1953 - thanks, Peter!
Welcome to a much expanded version of the site that acts as an archive for copies of old London bus timetables in web page (.htm) or PDF form. Coverage is now much improved, with reasonably complete coverage from about 2002 onwards, with a fair sprinkling of earlier timetables, including the odd one as far back as 1996.
Most htm files have previously been available on or via the London Bus Routes timetable pages but are no longer current. Links to the current versions are also included. Some of the PDF files were compiled from that same source but the bulk are panel timetables formerly held on the London Bus Map site, which holds current panels (where they exist). The London Bus Map site also offers the excellent Greater London Bus Map, the only all-London bus map now available, prepared in 1970s style. Both current and historical versions of the map are available, with part of the revenue going to charities.
Click on one of the links below for list of timetables available. Then click to open; right click for other options (e g download).
Note that some of the links within them will no longer work
(though I am gradually eliminating these) or will take you to different destinations to those originally intended.
Disclaimer: Although I am adding to the timetable
list pages brief descriptions
of route or frequency changes that occurred, these should not be taken as
definitive. In particular it is not uncommon for changes to occur on a
different date to that shown on the original panel timetable. Also, errors in timings or routings that have emerged subsequently have not
systematically been corrected. Sorry about that, but this
is a "minimum effort" website! In both cases, I am happy to correct any
errors that you may find! Comments and notification of errors (and of links within this website
that do not work) are welcome but please bear in mind that I cannot
answer enquiries which are not about this site: e-mail here If anyone is prepared to let me use similar electronic
London bus timetable information, such as scanned files (and there are no
copyright issues) I would be happy to host them: e-mail here
