History:

The route N1 began on the 25th June 1995 and provided a nightly service between Trafalgar Square and Plumstead Garage via Aldwych, Waterloo, Elephant and Castle, Surrey Quays, Deptford Broadway, Greenwich and Woolwich. The N3 also ran between Trafalgar Square and Victoria but only meal relief journeys. The route was operated at New Cross Garage (NX) by Titans. The current PVR was Monday to Sunday 2T. On the 8th November 1997 a Bexleyheath allocation was introduced (BX) and NV type buses was introduced to the route. The current PVR was Monday to Sunday evenings 2NV from BX and 3NV from NX.

On the 14th November 1998 the contract was awarded to First Capital and the allocation was transferred to Northumberland Park Garage (NP). The route was also withdrawn between Trafalgar Square and Victoria. The current PVR was Monday to Sunday 2TN. On the 8th January 2000 the route was extended from Plumstead to Thamesmead town centre and the allocation was transferred to Dagenham (DM). The current PVR was Monday to Sunday 6TN using the X 25 buses.

On the 24th April 2000, the N1 was withdrawn between Aldwych and Trafalgar Square, and was diverted to Tottenham Court Road Station via Holburn.
