Contemporary with the 1966 delivery of PD3s were the first batch of Atlanteans. 803 (EWS803D) is seen
here being steam cleaned at Marine depot in 1967.
|
New in 1967 was Atlantean/Alexander 867 (JSC867E). That was the end of new Edinburgh Titans.
|
This picture of one of the last Edinburgh Atlanteans 602 (OSC602V) was taken in 2000. The bus had just
been sold out of service by Lothian Regional Transport to Classic Coaches of High Wycombe. The bus,
still in Edinburgh colours, is seen at John Hampden Grammar School on a school contract, shortly before
the demise of Classic.
|
Millennium Showbus saw this fine pair of Edinburgh vehicles exhibited side by side. 812, an early
Alexander bodied Atlantean and an early Alexander bodied Olympian, 667, at the end of its service days with
the Scottish capital city. 812 has been modelled by EFE as illustrated on page 4. The first Atlanteans were
unusual with singledoor bodies and the smaller windows - the majority of later Atlanteans having the
panoramic size.
|
Lothian further increased the variety of vehicles that they have presented at SHOWBUS in recent years
with this elderly, but immaculate, Leyland Tiger from the tour fleet, newly turned out in the new livery,
which has replaced the classic black and white.
