Road runs
In addition to the free bus services, there will be two runs over old routes:

Routes 216 and 218: a run from Sandown Park to Kingston, then over the 216 to Staines and returning by the 218 to Sandown Park, will depart Sandown Park at 1450.
Some, but not all, of the buses will carry passengers. The runs are non-stop except for photo stops at the discretion of crews. Note that access to Fulwell Garage is not permitted except by permission of London United staff on duty.
