Wednesday 2 September 2009 (0938) – Essex County Buses Plaxton Pointer bodied Dennis Dart SLF T74 WWV seen in the Bus Station when working service 82. This bus was new in March 1999 to Airlinks as their number 74. The small sized service number aperture manages to contain a static service number with scrolling text showing destination information. ECB ran their buses 10 minutes in front of those of First Eastern Counties on exactly the same route pattern using the same service numbers.

The buses carried question marks and the public were invited to enter a competition to name the new operation, the prize being a 'season ticket' of some kind. The Bury St. Edmunds operation ceased before getting a name.
