TWO DAYS OF OBSERVATIONS

Today a recap of the last two days, of Ipswich town services, starting with yesterday, two Ipswich Buses Optare Versa's escaped the confines of their usual services and ventured out in 146's case on the 13's and 151 on the 4, on the 3 to John Lewis instead was Dart 93 and Enviro 200 104, and on the 9 in place of Citario 154 was Optare Excel 170, and after a period of about a week on 92-94'S Scania Omnicity Decker 36 has appeared on the 15/A, both yesterday and today. On the ex Carters routes was Lowlander's 57 and 59, Trident 7 and Scania Omnicity Deckers 30/34/35. Whilst on First services 60/61 an eclectic mix of buses were operating the 60/61, 3 Volvo B7RLE'S 66984/66957 and 69424, with Volvo B7TL 32488 and Enviro 200 44519 which later on in the day was substituted for a baby Enviro 200 45119 RT09 JPT see below. Today saw an unlikely substitution on the 15A when Optare Solo 243 did one round trip after Scania Omnicity Decker 43 broke down on the stand, apart from that very little differed from normal allocations with just Lowlander 59 appearing on the 9, whilst on the 92-94'S from the OCM saw both remaining ex Carters Trident's 7 and 8 see below, with Lowlander 55, Scania Omnidekka 60 with 4 Scania Omnicity Decker's in 37/38/41 and 44.

In the afternoon today 3 First Ipswich Volvo B7TL's were on the 60/61 services 32479/32487 and 32492.
