Maundy Thursday 2 April 2026 (1021 BST) – The original Flixbus service 007 began on 17 April 2025 (also Maundy Thursday) and ran twice daily between Norwich and Stratford (East London). This schedule ran until 31 March 2026 then on 1 April 2026 was changed to become one daily trip running via Stratford through to Victoria Coach Station, London.

Transport Made Simple is the contracted operator on this service with vehicles provided by the Simonds of Botesdale Limited subsidiary from the start of the service. However, this vehicle carries the legal name of Central Connect Transport Limited also owned by Transport Made Simple.

419 (YK25 OMF), a Yutong GT12 new in April 2025, is seen at Fiveways, Barton Mills when working the 0905 Norwich-London service which had called at Thetford (due there 1000-1005) and was due to arrive Stratford at 1145 and Victoria Coach Station at 1255.

On the new service schedule the northbound service departs Victoria at 1600 calling at Stratford (1705-1710), Thetford (1855-1900) and Norwich (1955).

(My observations showed the northbound service later today was worked by a different coach, 420 (YK25 OMG). The next day that coach worked the Norwich-London service but it was 418 (YK25 OME) that worked the London-Norwich service).
