I am grateful to Malcolm Robson of Ipswich Buses for sending me pictures of newly returned refurbished Dart 93 X93 LBJ from Hants and Dorset Trim. Have to say for an older bus it's looking very good inside and out. She should be out in service tomorrow and has been replaced at Hants and Dorset by Dart 98 X98 LBJ, which is the next to be refurbished, repainted, and made DDA compliant.

Have to say she does look rather good |

My thanks to Malcolm for sending me the pictures. Malcolm also tells me there is an exciting job opportunity at Ipswich buses being announced shortly, and it seems a return to the past is looming. More details in the coming days.
