Ipswich Buses have purchased two new AD Enviro 200 single deckers their first new ones since the batch of Scania Omnicites back in early 2007, registered YX63 LGE/F currently in dealer white livery it's unknown what livery they will be painted into. IB have also announced cut price tickets for the months of November and December, both ten trip and weekly tickets will be reduced to £10 presumably to win passengers over with the imminent arrival of First on Chantry next week. Confirmed repaints into the new First livery continue with 69421/22/25/26/27/29 having been done, with just 69423/24/28/32 to be done. Meanwhile Galloways have announced that they are to take over the Stowmarket town service from First on November 4th now being renumbered 387 in line with their other local routes. Just a quick plug here for my friend Steve W's new blog covering his rail and bus journeys in North Suffolk http://busandtrain.blogspot.co.uk/

Another recent repaint into the new First Livery is Volvo B7RLE 69422 AU58 FFJ

The last single deck bought by IB was Enviro 300 83 SK07 DYA
