It what may be a first, the flooring of a new bus fleet has got Londoners very excited.

One person has even claimed it’s better than their own home, and joked they might consider moving in.

It all started with a video filmed by a passenger onboard one of Transport for London’s (TfL) new 307 buses and later shared on TikTok.

WARNING: Video contains strong language

The 20-second clip shows the top floor of the bus, which runs from Brimsdown Station in Enfield to Barnet Hospital, with what appears to be vinyl wood effect flooring.

The person filming asks, ‘er sorry but what the f*** is this? Why is this bus so nice?’.

He adds: ‘How come we don’t have these in Edmonton? Na fam you’re taking the p***, look how nice this bus looks. Bruv are you dumb?’

Almost 40,000 people have liked the video and more than 600 comments have been left below, with several people expressing their own awe at the bus interiors.

One wrote: ‘If the buses looked like that, I would acc pay for travel.’

While another posted: ‘Tbh better flooring than my own house, rent’s getting a bit high, might move in.’

Some wrote that the buses had actually been in service already and that they could also be found in other parts of London.

One person added: ‘In South London they even have leather seats.’

Another suggested the bus wouldn’t look good for long. They said: ‘I give it a week. The floors are gonna be removed and everything is gonna be trashed.’

The bus is one of circa 1,000 zero-emission buses operated across the capital.
