I am particularly interested in Routes: 11; 87; 137 and 156.

Are these hybrid buses? Do they have an automatic shut-down?

If not hybrid, please would you let me know what type they are.

Bus routes 11 and 137 are New Routemaster hybrids and have automatic shut off technology which activates when the battery is fully charged. The 87 bus route has ultra-clean ADL Euro VI hybrids and the 156 bus route has 2009 Euro V diesels which have different engine management systems to minimise emissions.

If this is not the information you are looking for, or if you are unable to access it for some reason, please do not hesitate to contact me.
