KUC 983P, Ipswich Buses Leyland Fleetline No. 99 near Sproughton, April 1989.

            Taken over with the Squirrels services to Hitcham in January 1989 (along with Bedford No. 164) was this ex London Fleetline (originally London Transport DMS 1983).  It was allocated Ipswich fleet number 99 (only the second time that fleet number had been used in Ipswich's history).  It was never intended to stay in the fleet very long and as it only worked a few runs between Ipswich and Hitcham each day it was quite difficult to get photographs.  I picked a foul weekday morning to go in search of the elusive bus and this is the rather indifferent result.  After a brief reprieve brought about by the demise of Atlantean 87, No. 99 was sold to Ensign in June 1999.  It's place on the Hitcham service was taken by Dennis Dominator No. 82.
