Default Bus Route Numbering

And the 96 tram became the 696 trolley which became the 96 bus.

One of the longest lived must be the 7 tram which begat the 607
trolleybus which begat the 207 motorbus which now has a 607 express
variant......

I read somewhere not too long ago (and I can't for the life of me
remember where) that the 24 is the oldest unaltered bus route in London,
which certainly seems pretty likely.
