Sunday 15 October 1995 (approx. 1750) – During repairs to the A11 dual carriageway near Barton Mills there were different local diversions in force resulting in sightings of buses where they would not normally been seen.

The eastbound carriageway was closed and the westbound carriageway working as a contra-flow with traffic running in both directions. As a result traffic wishing to turn right to Barton Mills near the now long closed Dog & Partridge Inn and The Bull Inn had to travel to Chalk Hill to make the turn and then travel back on the old road to reach the Dog & Partridge.

Eastern Counties Omnibus Company LC36 (K736 JAH), a Northern Counties Paladin bodied Dennis Lance new in February 1993 with fleet number S36, was seen on the A11 between Fiveways and Chalk Hill when working the 1600 hrs Suffolk County Council sponsored Sundaybus service 156 from Ipswich to Ely which had travelled via Bury St. Edmunds.
