i saw a bus with the number 507 , does this mean that there is at least 507 differentes lines in london, or are they juste random numbers?

and do you know a bus line with a higher number?

There are over 700 different routes. I hope the Transport for London website will be of interest to you.

I understand you curiosity! Ignore these people who don't have anything better to do than sit on "answers" all and give nonsense replies to questions.

I remember wondering the same thing myself when i first got here. Still, i never really bothered to find out so i'll keep checking back on your question to see if somebody knows!

However, i do recall being quite excited when i found the Number 1 bus! (small things, hey?)

London's bus network is one of the largest and most comprehensive urban transport systems in the world. Every weekday over 6,800 scheduled buses carry around six million passengers on over 700 different routes.
