At a glance

  • Affected location: London
Route 148X was introduced for the 2025 Notting Hill Carnival, a new service supplementing the 148 service. This route replaces the 2X, which did not run this year, linking Victoria and the Carnival site (as the 36X is non-stop from Vauxhall to Harrow Road), with connections to the normal 2 service, which some made use of upon observation during the limited time I had at Victoria. Despite the very presence of LED displays allowing flexibility over blinds, somehow TfL or First did not prepare 148X
