All withdrawn from TfL routes.

Mitcham Belle/Centra withdrew their last couple of M's when it was taken
over by Centra with AV's from London Central

Metrobuses the only few are at Arriva Leaside Travel possibly still doing
school routes as well as Blue Triangle

Rail replacements Arriva London Siteseeing (Wandsworth), Sullivan Buses,
Wiltax, Blue Triangle still have M's and T's (Sullivan and Blue Triangle).

London General/Central have no more M's and T's
London United have a couple of trainers of M's but have a few left ready to
be sold (can be seen at Fulwell garage)
Arriva London North have a couple left though I think they sold them
Metroline got rid of their last few from Potters Bar;

Stagecoach only have T1 left though it is for their heritage fleet.

The 474 may still have a couple of Blue Triangle Titans on it, at
least they were still around earlier in the year. Good place to look
is East Beckton Asda terminus. Usual type employed by Blue Triangle on
this route are the East Lancs bodied Tridents.

The only routes to have them scheduled are school routes like the 41S,
617, 675 etc which get Arriva Travel Metrobuses while some Romford area
routes like the 649 get Titans from Blue Triangle. There are none in
scheduled service on "normal" TfL routes and there are no spares lurking
around in garages ready to sneak out in service.

http://www.londonbusroutes.net/details.htm#school will give you some
extra info and links to timetables for the routes.

Sightseeing tours or Circle line rail replacements?

They're all axed from TfL routes but they are very common on both of
these.

I don't know. The 12 no longer runs passed my street so I don't often
travel on it.

Volvo Olympians - which are allowed to substitute on Routemaster routes
as RMs are not low floor.
