[edit] History
Night bus N98 runs a night service for route 98 between Holborn and Willesden, and then continues to Stanmore via Kingsbury and Neasden as a night service for the Northern end of the Jubilee Line. The route is structured so that every other bus runs beyond Willesden to Stanmore.
The N98 use run to Trafalgar Square, in the days when all night routes were centered around Trafalgar Square, via Regent Street and Piccadilly Circus, but the Trafalgar Square to Oxford Circus section was withdrawn in 2003, with no replacement, and instead rerouted to Holborn Red Lion Square.
The route was also on a contract to Centrewest, stationed at Alperton bus garage, using Leyland Olympians and Metrobuses. The allocation was moved to Metroline in 2003, to Willesden and Edgware garages, using Volvo B7TL / Plaxton Presidents.
