Bus Running Day
I took part in a bus running day on Sunday, one of those opportunities to travel around central Scotland on classic buses. I started from Glasgow on this London Transport Metrobus, built in 1981.
Blackpool Leyland casts a shadow at the junction of Alexandra Parade and Cumbernauld Road, Glasgow.
The oldest bus taking part, a 1929 Leyland Tiger TS2, was giving short rides around the M90 Commerce Park at Lathalmond in Fife, from where various short trips set off.
Kilty in Kelty.
I took a trip to Kelty in the Ailsa Volvo. This bus was built in Scotland during the nineteen seventies by Ailsa Truck Company at Irvine, Ayshire, with bodywork by Alexanders of Stirling using a Swedish Volvo power plant.
After lunch I went to Saline on the immaculately preserved Leyland Leopard coach, seen here in front of Saline village church.
