6211 is anArriva Southern Counties bus , used on the 370 , based out of Grays .

DW211 would be in the Arriva London North number series .

It looks as if you have , confusingly , two different Arriva Group companies , working on different TfL Routes in your area .

Personally I do not , others on here might . Or you could trying Logging in to the "London Omnibus Traction Society's Web Page , and go back through their News pages . You may find the answer there .

Regret I can not be of further help on this .

Yes , Arriva Southern Counties , who control Arriva Southend , who run TfL Route 370', have acquired some ex London DW class Buses .

These were actually transferred to ASC for the conversion of route 66 to double deck, although they do sometimes appear on the 370 as well.
