FIRST IPSWICH DRIVER ON TV AND IPSWICH BUSES FEATURE IN BUSES MAG

Following on from my article on Saturday about Double Amputee driver Justin Pearson, ITV Anglia news was filming yesterday a piece presumably for that nights program, as can be seen little did i know i had photoed the back end of 69425! Also out today was an excellent feature in Buses Magazine for November on Ipswich Buses the one thing that struck out for me was as Malcolm Robson said that a lack of funds was the reduction in the level of money from the Bus Service Operators Grant and from the English National Concessionary Travel Fund which is costing the company £720,000 per year.

Very odd occurrence yesterday was Volvo B7TL 30888 W743 DWX  on the 66 while 32490 was on the 64.

As seen above Volvo B7RLE 69425 AU58 FNN has re entered service while returning is Volvo B7TL 32493 with sister 32489 departing, confusion still reigns over whether 23312/14 have actually left Ipswich, as they turned back from their trek to Cornwall because of the bad weather on Monday.

 69010 AU05 DMY on camera at last and in service seen here yesterday on the 60/61.

32487 a different view of how the logos are applied to the side of the bus it also has the same application of the Ipswich name to the front as per the Volvo B7RLES and the Enviros.
