A small number of slides passed to me through the Dundee Bus Forum with the suggestion that I scan a few of them to share on the web. The slides had come from company sources when an office was being cleared out. These shots appear to have been taken in early 1994 and early 1997 and feature new Stagecoach Bluebird Interurbans and PS's along with a few shots of Ballater Depot and Elgin Bus Station and the Royal Route branding.

Whilst the shots are relatively recent, it's worth taking stock of how much the bus scene has changed since these shots were taken. Film used appears to be a fairly high speed Kodakchrome which doesn't always scan too well, even when using the special Kodakchrome settings on the scanner.

These slides are all scanned with a Nikon Coolscan V ED film scanner.

Thanks for visiting - haste ye back.
