For almost thirty years from around 1970, Route 166 ran between Monks Orchard Road and Chipstead Valley. Here is M521 at the eastern terminus in Shirley. Around the turn of the century, the route lost its eastern end, while the western end was extended to Banstead, and later to Epsom. At the same time the route lost its double deckers.
