First's Service 99 Re-registered

Routemaster NML623E in its former Flying Banana livery carrying the destination 
display for service 99 Lowestoft to Southwold. First planned to operate it on a 
summer Sunday service but the proposal failed to materialise
Christian Newsome has alerted me to the fact that First Eastern Counties seem to be reintroducing their 99 route after some absence. The 99 last operated on 3rd April 2011

The service had been logged with VOSA on the 28th March and should restart on 25th May. Its introduction would be in direct competition with Anglianbus 61

My thanks to Christian for the heads up and to Syd Eade for the photo

    Good to see this. Competition is good stops companies getting complacent.
