(23 Sep 2017, 3:13 pm)Kuyoyo 4 of the Streetairs are now in Edinburgh. 286 (SK67 FLE) has been out on the 'short' 26s between Haymarket and Eastfield today alongside the Vintage Fleet and the two Fleet Liveried open top Tridents. While two sisters (I didn't get chance to ID them - think one was 287) were on display at the open day - one open to the public and the other on the lifts. Meanwhile, 288 was inside the depot unregistered (see below)

(10 Nov 2017, 2:03 pm)Dan Lothian Buses are to receive an influx of 45 ex-London double-decks - believed to be heading for the East Coast Buses division.
To be refurbished at Thornton Bros, Ashington, over the next few weeks.

As an update to my original post: I'm told that Lothian Buses were not happy with the condition of the first refurbished Volvo B9TL that they received from Thorntons, so the entire batch is going back across to Wrightbus to have the extensive refurbishment work carried out instead.
