Garage History

Northumberland Park Bus Garage was opened in 1991 by Capital Citybus after they achieved massive route gains in London, following the collapse of London Regional Transport subsidiary company London Forest.

Ownership of Northumberland Park and Capital Citybus transferred on 21 December 1995 when owners CNT Group sold out to the incumbent management team. This arrangement lasted until 8 July 1998 when the management sold the company to FirstGroup.

From the beginning of FirstGroup ownership, Northumberland Park and its services were operated utilising the First Capital name. This did not last long and the garage was integrated into the First London operation.

Following a series of tender losses and the general downturn of the bus business at First, the company sold Northumberland Park and its routes to the Go-Ahead Group in March 2012. The operation was incorporated by the new company under its London General subsidiary.

With the tender wins by Go Ahead London General of routes 153, 230, and 444, coupled with their allocation of new Alexander Dennis Limited Enviro200 & Enviro400 EV vehicles, Northumberland Park now operates one of the largest electric bus fleets in Europe, totalling over 100 vehicles.
