Imperial Buses is a small bus company located in Rainham, London who operate services in Essex, Greater London and Thurrock.
[edit] Routes
They mostly operate school buses and rail replacement services but also operate some routes around Essex. They have a private hire business, with vintage Routemasters and RTs. The vintage buses are seen at bus rallies, on television advertisements and on special days usually around Christmas on their H1 route.
Imperial Buses also operate many school buses across Essex and Thurrock, as well as being a frequent contributor to local rail replacement services.
[edit] Routes previously operated
Many routes were previously operated by Imperial Buses. The 502 from Loughton to Romford via Debden, Abridge, Havering-atte-Bower and Collier Row was operated for a while, before being taken over by Blue Triangle of Rainham who only operated the route for a few months, before the route was discontinued. Imperial also began the number 10 route, which operated from Loughton to Passingford Bridge via Debden and Abridge, surprisingly the route was operated by double deckers even when only a few people where using the route. Route 10 was later taken over by Trustline using minibuses. The route has now been replaced by route 541 (Loughton to Epping via Debden, Abridge, Theydon Bois) operated by Arriva Shires & Essex.
