Christmas Bus

Another Seen from the Road, as I drove through Broughty Ferry the other day, I saw this wonderful bus , as if it had travelled from another time. This is the Dundee Christmas Bus, which plies route 73 during the holiday. Usually the 73 (which was my favourite bus route) went all the way to Arbroath, but this veteran bus stops at Monifieth. In the 1990s, Dundee Council ran old London buses, which were brilliant as you could jump on at traffic lights and even if the bus was going slowly enough. The romance of bus travel is all about sitting upstairs at the front of a noisy, tinny old bus for me.
