SET Up

Ambassador's Scania S350SET works the 607 to Gorleston on Monday last

One service that doesn't normally get a mention here is Ambassador Travel's 607 route which runs between Lowestoft Bus Station and Gorleston's Morrison's store via a few Suffolk villages on the way

The service is usually operated by one of Ambassador's four Optare Solos but on Monday Syd Eade captured Wright Axcess-Floline bodied Scania S350SET on the 607 turning into Lowestoft's Denmark Road on its way to Gorleston

He remarks that 'it makes a nice change from putting a huge coach on it when the Solo is feeling unwell'

S350SET has a little bit of history in that she was new Irish Bus in August 1998 as 98-D-76402. After working for Centrebus and Dunn-Line, among others, she was subsequently acquired by Great Yarmouth-based Ambassador Travel in September 2008. The Scania also experienced a short loan period with Ipswich Buses during 2000
