HFF: Stephensons 643 (YN55 NKE) and Mulleys YN54 AHE in Mildenhall - 1 Oct 2021 (P1090690)

Friday 1 October 2021 (1203) – Two buses in King Street, Mildenhall both unfortunately running nearly 20 minutes late having been caught up in the tailbacks created by motorists queueing to panic buy fuel at the Jet filling station in North Terrace. A shortage of fuel tanker delivery drivers nationally resulted in a shortage of fuel at filling stations with panic buying only exacerbating the situation.

Mulleys Motorways YN54 AHE, a Scania N94UD OmniCity new to Nottingham City Transport as their 211 in September 2004, seen arriving back on service 358 from West Row. (Due in at 1145).

Stephensons of Essex 643 (YN55 NKE), an East Lancs Omnidekka bodied Scania N94UD that had been new to London Sovereign as their SLE36 in October 2005, was working the 1110 service 16 from Newmarket to Bury St. Edmunds.
