VICTORIA - WALTHAM CROSS
Sunday extended all day from Lower Edmonton to Waltham Cross.

RM51 is seen having just arrived on the 127 and subbed - the running number having been mounted onto another RM and disappeared back toward Warren Street. 
It's keeping company with other RMs and a bevy of equally mucky RTs.
