 In July 2007 Greyhound Canada had the franchise for the Gray Line bus tours of Ottawa. This former Derby Roe bodied Daimler Fleetline open topper is seen in Rideau Street by Confederation Square with the Hotel Chateau Laurier behind. The bus used to be 249 (CRC249J) but was then Greyhound Canada 2008 (BM4-304). |
 Six hours later 2008 is passing 2007 (BH7-982) at Confederation Square with the east wing of the Canadian Parliament building behind. The red decker is an unidentified Park Royal bodied Leyland Atlantean new to Plymouth City Transport |
 Gone, but certainly not forgotten, Leeds operator Black Prince was a keen Ailsa operator and former 71 was painted into their livery. The bus appeared at SHOWBUS international 2016 in Black Prince colours as part of a memorable Ailsa display of six buses. At the far end, travelling all the way from Scotland was Tayside 273 (WTS273T), then from Kent Maidstone & District 5385 (LKP385P). On the other side of former Derby 71 was London Buses V1 (A101SUU), which had once operated for Black Prince and then the two preserved West Midlands PTE Ailsas, 4738 (JOV738P) and 4527 (TOE527N).
