That bus is running as a train again.

Only partly - it only runs on the WLL, it doesn't reach Ealing Broadway - so
there is still a coach involved.

...Won't it cease when the East London
extension to Clapham Junction opens later this year, though?

I don't think so, because the ELL extension does not actually cover the
whole stretch of track - there would still be a short stretch without
passenger services, between Longhedge Jn and Latchmere Jn No 1. The new
service will use an independent pair of tracks west of Longhedge Jn,
unfortunately there are four tracks, and the parly service uses the other
pair...
