Peter is known for his liking for ‘images in the environment’ and I suspect he chose this location more for the location than the bus.
The building in the background is typically Scottish.
The dormer windows, The weathervane topped spire and all those chimney pots!
New to ‘Stagecoach Western Buses’.

The bus is spotlessly clean and looks far younger than the 18 years old that the registration indicates.
However, I suspect that the beautiful plate tracery window in Hope Park & Martyrs Parish Church might have influenced the location.

New to ‘Selkent’ No. 36020 and still wearing most of its previous owners livery.
More Scottish stonework and dormer windows and look at the road surface!
Setts no less and, in all probability, granite.

Look at all those chimney pots!
It was a good job that Fife at one time had its own coalfield.

Of all the different frontal styling applied to ADL’s single deckers in recent years, I think that this is the most attractive.
New to ‘Dunstan’ (Blue Bus), Middleton, Manchester No. 62.
