FEC Heritage Livery at Ipswich announced

It has been revealed that Ipswich based Volvo B7TL 32479 will become the first vehicle to wear one of First's Heritage liveries which have been rumoured for some time. The livery chosen is the Post Office Red Eastern Counties style as seen here on freshly painted VR163 OUP683P at Ipswich Depot in the early nineties.

Jim Long is our man for Ipswich information and has kindly supplied the photos for this blog.

Another VR to gain the livery was VR179 OEL233P, seen here at Star Lane still undergoing
refrubishment in the sunshine of August 1993.

Im sure everyone is looking forward to the return of 32479, personally I'm looking forward to a vehicle in a Blue & Cream style livery to appear............
