London Buses route 204 is a Transport for London contracted bus route in London, United Kingdom. This service is currently contracted to Metroline.

[edit] History

Route 204 was introduced to replaced the withdrawn section of route 226 between Edgware & Sudbury Town.

The route has always been operated by Metroline and has always stayed at Edgware using Metrobuses. But in 1993 the route was converted to single deck and the bus route was moved to North Wembley. The route was converted into low-floor Dennis Dart SLF/Plaxton Pointer, the Sunday service went via Wembley Arena to replace the route 297.

When it was time to convert the route to double deck Volvo B7TL 10.6m/Plaxton President (VPL's) North Wembley had low beam and so the allocation was transferred back to Edgware and the Sunday service via Wembley Arena was withdrawn.

Route 204 is going to gain new Alexander Dennis Enviro 400 double deckers later in 2007.
