Dews Coaches BU52 ELY in Ely - 4 Jan 2010 (DSCN3732)

Monday 4 January 2010 (1320) – Ron W. Dew and Son Limited of Somersham operates the Cambridgeshire County Council supported service 106 from Ely to Cottenham and Rampton, a service I once drove on when Burtons operated the service and was one of my favourites.

Plaxton Pointer bodied Dennis Dart BU52 ELY turns from Newnham Street into Market Street, Ely arriving as the 1240 service from Cottenham. It would then work the 1328 service to Rampton via Witcham, Haddenham, Aldreth, Wilburton and Cottenham. The electronic destination screen scrolls through different displays to show the various villages on the route and is already set for its next run and at this moment was showing Wilburton, Haddenham and Witcham. The registration number of the bus is BU52 ELY cannily spaced BU5 2 ELY to read ‘Bus to Ely’. (www.dews-coaches.com).
