I saw on TV not long ago something about Hybrid buses being used in
London - not those hopeless fuel cell things but a diesel engine plus
electric motor. Are these out and about yet?

And double-deckers since November 2006.http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/london/6102806.stm

Anyone know what routes?

Single decks are on the 360 (South Ken - Elephant) and the double deck
is normally scheduled for the 141 (London Bridge - Palmers Green) but I
believe it is away for further mods at present.

An ethanol powered Scania double deck is scheduled for use on the 148
but it's not been passed for operation yet.
