Dunno. It could be one of the 'Scottish' buses - Western, Central etc. IIRC they
were all different colours. GK will know...

Interesting thread. I am into railway simulators but off and on over the last couple of years, I have been using a train sim called AuranTrainz to build the Glasgow Tramway System. I have had all the Glasgow trams built for it - standard - Kilmarnock bogie- Coronation - Cunarder - single decker. There were times I got tired and left it then weIt was a massive project and I had a line sketch of every bit of track.Went off and on it as thought I had bitten off too much to chew d never ever thought I would end up building every line. Walked every route and alkl the outlying places -- Airdrie-Uddingston-Cambuslang-the cross country one from Rouken Glen/Speirsbridge in open country to Barrhead then up to Paisley Cross. The Love Street shuttle-Dalmuir West-Duntocher-Milngavie and so on. I even included the line that was cut back to Elderslie as far back as 1934. Before then the tramway went on to Johnstone and then single-tracked to the middle of Kilbarchan village. Everywhere there was once a line it's down. For people who have the Trainz Sim prog they can get my route and be in the tram driving or press a key and watch it going along. They can also be programmed to run between 2 points and change the points automatically.
From what I can gather my tramway project is the biggest tram one ever done so far and based on an actual one not fictititious. Shortly I hope to put up a video on my sim website so folk can see a Glasgow car running.
