MONDAY NOTES

Since the upgrade of the First Ipswich fleet nothing much seems to happen these days in Ipswich, although the 4 Enviro 200's due for Ipswich Buses should enliven things somewhat. Today was a case of using what small time i have these days in finding buses out of place somewhat from where they would normally be operating on, so here goes 4 branded East Lancs Darts 85/86 were both on the 8/13, while sister 87 was found on the 15A, of the ALX 200 Darts 144 found itself on the 19 in place of a Solo, 139 was on the 16 while 140/43 were employed on the X1, while DAF Lowlander 55 was on the X3, picture below. One thing that i did work was the decker that comes off the 4 at 11.29, today Trident 16 does the 17 to Stratford Court  then works back light to Tower Ramparts i would presume, before working out light to Bixley Farm at around 12.30. Above we see First Ipswich Volvo B7TL 32492 AU53 HKK one of three today on Felixstowe's, along with sisters 32490/91, Deckers are now much more common on these routes in recent times due to loadings being on the increase.
