EASTERN COUNTIES IN IPSWICH 1969

 LM 614 was a Bristol MW of 1964, CPW 614B and is seen slightly later in the early 1970's at Ipswich OCM.

Delving through my ever increasing photograph albums i bring you for a change a chance to look back at the varied allocation of Ipswich in 1969 to complete matters i have added Felixstowe and Saxmundham as they were in Suffolk but now form part of the Ipswich area although in those days were quite independent.
