Is it just in London like or does it happen elsewhere ?
If a bus has a one or two digit number you pronounce the whole thing ...like eleven or fifty seven.
However if it is a three digit bus number it is broken down into it's component parts .....like the 1 - 5 - 9 ....never the hundred and fifty nine ?
For why ? rubschin:
-
Bingo calling rules obviously. ::)

Dunno Miss D but I do remember we used to catch the N13 (Night Bus) from Trafalgar Square to North Finchley after we had been to the South Bank for a concert.
Woodstock has an encyclopedic knowledge of North London Bus routes ...... but she cannot give directions if I elect to drive into town. Comes from years of catching buses I suppose.

Yes I realise that... ::)
But the fact that we say fifty-seven and not five-seven is exactly the point the OP was making - and destroys your theory.....

No no no no. FIFTY SEVEN is a damned sight easier to say in one breath than ONE HUNDRED AND, yes another werd....AND FIFTY SEVEN, in'it?
FIFTY SEVEN just comes within the standard GROWLER number pronouncing tolerances, OK? whistle:

No, you have lost the plot... ::)
The point the OP was making was that we DO pronounce the whole number (fifty seven) when five seven would be simpler.
Yet on big numbers we say one five seven instead of one hundred and fifty seven - which is logical.
Or have I missed the point of the OP? Shrugs:

Now ...ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY SEVEN.
Fifty seven is as simple as saying a single digit number virtually in'it ey?
It's the werd AND that cocks it all up in the hundreds numbers.

Oh yes, PLUS the werds ONE HUNDRED, the werd HUNDRED being two syliables too like too.
