'Seeing the pictures of Syd Eade's 790 service to Great Yarmouth & the 794 service to Peterborough, I

LL753 MCL935P about to take up her 792 duties on 27th May 1984

thought I would add the forgotten 792 Ipswich to Peterborough which continued on to Felixstowe in the summer. Now that is also a route and a half!

Many thanks for the photos and report Jim, I had completely forgotten about the 792.
