London Buses route 397 is a Transport for London contracted bus route in London, United Kingdom. The service is currently contracted to Arriva London.

History

The 397 route was first introduced in the late 1990s following the withdrawal of route 531 which connected Chingford with Loughton. The route was originally operated by Arriva Shires & Essex but due to the closure of Debden garage, the operations passed to Arriva London in Edmonton along with the Alexander ALX200 buses. An every 30 minute Sunday service was introduced in February 2007 making it a daily 30 minute service.

Vehicles

Arriva have always used Alexander ALX200 buses on this route which they have now repainted from the blue and cream Arriva national livery into the red and cream Arriva London livery due to TfL requirements. The route sometimes has odd appearances from Dennis Dart MPDs, and older Alexander ALX200s from the London Buses route 444.
