Lothian Buses is delighted to learn of a fourth round of Scottish Green Bus Funding. As a company we are always looking for ways to offer greener and more sustainable travel, both for our passengers and the local environment. With the financial support from the Scottish Government we have been able to continue growing our green fleet. To date we have placed 25 hybrids into service and have a further 20 on order as a result of earlier Scottish Green Bus Fund rounds. These buses have helped trim over 1,000 tonnes per year from our carbon footprint and are persuading a significant number of car users to use the bus instead of a private car for urban journeys.

If they weren't built pretty solidly, I don't think I'd be a fan.

If anyone has taken any photographs in Edinburgh today, feel free to share a link to the photos here. Was very good and I had a great day - can't wait to see all of the photos. Just a shame about my better quality camera packing in. Still took some photos with it mind, just ensured I left enough room to crop them later as I was using my eyes rather than the screen to determine when to take the photo.
En-route back to Newcastle now and the train is pretty much dead..lovely!

Was quite interesting seeing 918 in half harlequin and madder, reminded me of 2 face from Batman (geek moment of the day). Gutted to be home though.
