Wednesday 6 January 2016 (0807) - A road closure in Station Road, Barton Mills resulted in a diversion for Mulleys Motorways BIG 6885 working the 0735 service 955 from West Row and Mildenhall to Bury St. Edmunds. The bus had to travel via Fiveways, Newmarket Road and Church Lane in order to serve the stop at St. Mary's Church, Barton Mills. It was seen here as it turned out of Church Lane into The Street where it resumed its normal route. The tri-axle Alexander bodied Leyland Olympian was new in May 1990 to Hong Kong Citybus (Fleet number 122 later 341, registration number EL 7976). When imported to the UK it was given registration number G374 FWC and was operated by ‘On a Mission’ of Soulbury, Buckinghamshire
