A chance to delve into the archive with a flashback of two Bristol RELL's with two different livery schemes, at the top heading into the Cricketers lay by is 119 TRY 119H, near by is a Leyland Atlantean advertising the Britannia Building Society now i believe absorbed into what is now the CO-OP bank, the Greenwich route is still run by Ipswich Buses as the X1 in competition with First Ipswich, the picture below it is of sister 121 TRY 121H which run initially in Leicester livery with the maroon band painted green which was almost identical to the Ipswich livery carried by Atlanteans 1-35, 120/21 were fairly early casualties, the last being 118 which exited Constantine Road depot on a late duty on the 8 to Whitehouse on a June afternoon in 1987, 118 is preserved today in Economic livery which it carried whilst finishing it's career up on Tyne and Wear.
