SDX 62, Ipswich Neepsend bodied AEC Regent V, Lattice Barn, Ipswich, circa 1979

            Numerically, the last of the final batch of trolleybus replacement buses delivered in 1963 (though not actually the last of that batch to enter service), Bus 62 is seen working inbound to town from Rushmere Heath.  The original electric tram route along Spring Road terminated at this location, as did the replacing trolleybus service (in 1926).  The route was extended to Rushmere Heath in 1934, although a turning loop remained in place here until post war years.  Trolleybuses ceased operating on this route in 1962, but - as seen here - the traction poles remained in place for many years afterwards.
