Cambus 606 (BNG 451J) in Cambridge – 19 Jan 1985 (9-9)

Saturday 9 February 1985 - In September 1984 the Eastern Counties Omnibus Company, a National Bus Company subsidiary, was split up. ECOC itself retained the operations in Norfolk and Suffolk whilst the western part, covering Cambridgeshire and the Newmarket and Haverhill areas on the edge of West Suffolk, passed to a newly created Cambus Limited.

Now as Cambus 606 (BNG 451J) this bus had been new to ECOC as their VR 389 in June 1971 and was still sporting the ECOC red and white livery. It was seen turning from Trinity Street to St. Mary’s Street in Cambridge heading the Railway Station on service 182.
