- History
Night bus N16 is night service for route 16 between Cricklewood & Victoria and route 32 between Edgware & Kilburn High Road.
This night route dates back at least as far as 1934, when it was numbered 294, running between Cricklewood Bus Garage and Liverpool Street station, via Marble Arch, Oxford Circus and Trafalgar Square. The route originally ran from Cricklewood Bus Garage using AEC Renown LT type double deckers. The route was then renumbered N94 in September 1960 and renumbered again to the present N16 in 1991. By 1991, the route had been extended from Cricklewood to Edgware, and was running from Edgware Bus Garage using Metrobuses, reverting to Cricklewood Bus Garage in March 1993, only for the allocation to return back to Edgware Garage in January 1994.
On 29 January 1994 the Trafalgar Square to Liverpool Street section was withdrawn, and the rerouted from Trafalagar Square, down Whitehall to Victoria.
In February 2001, the allocation was adjusted to be shared between Edgware and Cricklewood Bus Garages.
In October 2002, the Cricklewood allocation was again withdrawn and at the same time,the route was rerouted away from Trafalgar Square to run direct from Marble Arch via Park Lane to Victoria, following the day route 16.
In February 2005, Harrow Weald (HD) gained a weekend allocation for route N16.
On 29 June 2012, the Edgware (EW) allocation for route N16 was transferred to Cricklewood (W).
