Which it does, but the number 30 that had the bomb on it was going the other way - if you look at the photos of it, it's visible that the indicator board on the front reads "Hackney Wick", and it wouldn't have made any sense for it to be in the place it was if it was on its southbound route. All the media reports for some reason keep saying that it was going toward Marble Arch, but it wasn't. I think that the confusion arose because it was heading south down the street it was on and reporters took this to mean that it was on its "southbound" (ie into town) route.
