  • English: Arriva Guildford & West Surrey 5925 (M925 PKN), a Volvo Olympian/Northern Counties Palatine, turning left from Southgate Avenue into Station Way, about to take up route 398. This bus was at Tenderten depot, in another part of Arriva Southern Counties. However, following a contract loss, the depot closed, and this bus moved to Horsham to replace an older bus, 5801. However, Horsham depot was then sold to Metrobus. While the fleet of single-deckers moved to Metrobus with the sale, 5925 stayed at Arriva Guildford & West Surrey and briefly moved to Guildford depot, before settling at Cranleigh outstation for a newly won school contract. For additional details of this photograph, see File:Arriva Guildford & West Surrey 5925 M925 PKN.JPG.

  • English: Arriva Guildford & West Surrey 5925 (M925 PKN), a Volvo Olympian/Northern Counties Palatine, turning left from Southgate Avenue into Station Way, Crawley, about to take up route 398. Arriva sold Crawley depot to the Metrobus division of the Go-Ahead Group in the early 2000s. However, from Horsham depot, some Tesco shopper services and school route 398 (an extension of Horsham town route 98), continued to reach Crawley, so Arriva maintained a small presence in the town if you looked closely. However, in October 2009, they sold Horsham depot to Metrobus as well, and Arriva finally ceased to serve Crawley.

  • English: A bus stop in Southgate Avenue, Crawley. This is part of the Crawley Fastway guided bus system. The bus stop is served by Fastway route 20, which does not serve the town centre and bus station, instead using this stop a short walk away, to avoid a double run and speed up journey times. Unfortunately, this bus stop was closed for a long period in 2010, while utilities companies casually did road works in the bus lane. This meant the 20 couldn't stop anywhere near the town centre.

  • English: Bus stop A on Vicarage Hill, Westerham, Kent, at Westerham Green. These are Transport for London bus stops, as TfL route 246 serves them, and TfL selfishly take over in this situation. It also serves routes 236, and 401. Unlike stop B opposite, this stop states seperate "towards" points, so the information is correct for all the routes. However, the "alighting point only for buses terminating here" regards only the 246 so is rather misleading.
