Running between Uxbridge station and Acton, it is operated by Abellio London. HistoryThe conversion of route 207 to articulated buses resulted in the route no longer being able to serve Uxbridge, due to tight turns in the town centre, so the route was split into two sections on 9 April 2005 with the western end between Uxbridge station and Acton was renumbered 427, running from Acton (AT) garage using Dennis Trident 2s cascaded from route 207.[1][2] Transport for London were proposing to build the West London Tram between Shepherd's Bush and Uxbridge, running along Uxbridge Road. The tram would have replaced the current routes 207, 427 and 607. Transport for London claimed that trams would carry more passengers and be more reliable, but due to the Crossrail project going ahead the plans were scrapped.[3]Upon being re-tendered, First London commenced a new contract on 10 April 2010, with new Wright Eclipse Gemini 2 bodied Volvo B9TLs.[4] From the same date the route was due to be extended to Acton Town Hall in place of the former Horn Lane terminus, which was eventually put in effect in January 2011.[5] On 22 June 2013, route 427 was included in the sale of First London's Hayes garage to Metroline.[6][7][8] On 8 April 2017, the route passed to Abellio London operating rom their Hayes (WS) garage with brand new Enviro 400 MMC bodied Alexander Dennis E40Hs introduced.{{cn|date=October 2017}} ControversyIn July 2006 seven passengers on the route were attacked and robbed by a group calling themselves the "MDP".[9] On 22 August 2008, four youths received stab wounds during a brawl on a vehicle on the route near Hayes. The injuries were not life-threatening.[10] References1. ^{{cite journal|last=Aldridge|first=John|title=A real test coming for artics|journal=Buses|publisher=Ian Allan Publishing|issue=584|date=September 2003|page=12}} 2. ^[https://tfl.gov.uk/forms/13796.aspx?btID=38 Bus tender results Route 427] Transport for London 26 September 2003 3. ^Controversial tram plan derailed BBC News 3 August 2007 4. ^[https://www.tfl.gov.uk/forms/13796.aspx?btID=691 Bus tender results Route 427] Transport for London 14 September 2009 5. ^[https://web.archive.org/web/20111007094622/http://www.ealinggazette.co.uk/ealing-news/local-ealing-news/2011/01/19/bus-route-extension-is-boost-for-shoppers-64767-28017624/ Bus route extension is boot for shoppers] Ealing Gazette 19 January 2011 6. ^FirstGroup Announces Sale of Eight London Bus Depots FirstGroup 9 April 2013 7. ^[https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-scotland-scotland-business-22079937 Aberdeen firm FirstGroup sells off depots for £80m] BBC News 9 April 2013 8. ^First quits London bus business {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140607010730/http://www.busandcoach.com/newspage.aspx?id=7610&categoryid=0 |date=7 June 2014 }} Bus & Coach Professional 9 April 2013 9. ^Did you see vicious attack on bus?
