| Here is RT1837 (KYY 692)from BX on route 229 in McLeod Road, Abbey
Wood. Even in those days parking at bus stops was a problem, even when
few other cars were parked on the road. It was a long way to Orpington
from here, and Woolwich was not left long behind.
The 229 no longer traverses this road to Woolwich, It turn off at Abbey
Wood station and heads for Thamesmead instead. The other bus which came
this way the 177 now goes from Thamesmead via Abbey Estate, leaving the
180 which has been diverted along here.

at the stop. Probably a 177 coming up in the distance.
