I see from your reply that the correct term is "outstationed"


I don't see how the word could be used with buses. Although tube lines
usually have a depot or two and several sidings elsewhere, I don't think
there is a bus equivalent to sidings. If a route uses buses from two
garages, which buses are "outstationed"?

Not in London admittedly but some operators do use outstations. Stagecoach
whatever down here have a yard near Haslemere station where buses from
Aldershot's allocation are kept overnight (and between school runs) to save
them having to go back to Aldershot each night. It appears to be no more
than a bit of dirt ground in a car park.
