Operation
Stagecoach London operates London contracted services under the brands East London, Selkent and Thameside, but these brands tended to be overwhelmed by the much stronger London Buses brand. There also used to be a coaching operation under the brand East London Coaches which ceased operation in February 2007 and a Travelshop which closed in March 2009 that was based at the Company's Ilford Head Office. The Office is now at the new West Ham Garage in Stephenson Street, Canning Town, London E16.

Famous quotes containing the word operation:

The only idea of wit, or rather that inferior variety of the electric talent which prevails occasionally in the North, and which, under the name of “Wut,” is so infinitely distressing to people of good taste, is laughing immoderately at stated intervals.”
—Sydney Smith (1771–1845)
“It is critical vision alone which can mitigate the unimpeded operation of the automatic.”
