I took a shed load of Photos along Princess Street/Waverley Bridge and The Mound, And also took half a dozen in the Worlds Worst Bus Station, Yes Edinburgh Bus Station tops the Almighty Eldon Square in my Personal Opinion.
I then got on the 27 up to Hunters Tryst to get photos of the B5TL, That unfortunately did not go to plan, as it had been taken off early doors with Suspension Problems, But I did catch it back out on the 27 at The Mound at 16:30, which made me rather Happy, I would advise not going to far to catch the B5TL in case ends up with a few problems again over the weekend.
I also went along to Ocean Terminal and took some photos there and on the way back took some by a River I can't remember the name of on the 22 Route along Leith Walk, would recommend going along there as it is a lovely spot for photos, and I went to Harburn Hobbies where I bought the ELB Wright Pulsar 2 Model for £34.99 Destination Screen (Western General 113).
There are plenty of opportunities to get photos of the Trams as they running a frequently whilst on testing also, Last Hour or so I stayed near Waverley Station simply taking Photos of whatever came along, I would keep lookout for a Alexander Royale, as First had one out Today on the 62.
Overall I had a great day out, and I thinking already about booking tickets for in September for the Opens Doors Day Event at Central Depot, Dan can you set a Hashtag on the Photos Page #NEBGoes2Edinburgh, seeming so Me, You and Tom will have been over the Course of This Weekend, Hope you guys have a great time and I shall forward to seeing your Photos and Reviews.
As for me I am going get some scran I am starving and catch up on the Soaps while reading the Buses Magazine which I got read on the Train on the way up, and I will perhaps caption a few photos while I am at it.
Sounds like you had a cracking day Adam.
I'm looking to have a trip up on the 23rd, as I'm off work. Looking at train tickets now though, and I can actually go across to Glasgow and back for £8 quid more, so I'm thinking that instead. 07.42 off Newcastle, and the 18.30 off Edinburgh = £29.40.
Anyone fancy a trip up?
