Ultra-Rare (61478)
First Glasgow's only remaining* Wright Axcess Ultralow-bodied Scania L113CRL 61478 is seen on Rutherglen's Main St at rest between training duties.
Despite the influx of ex-First Scotland East/Midland Bluebird Solar-bodied L94UB trainers in the past year or so (which enabled the last 3 ex-South Yorkshire PS/B10M-55 trainers to finally be withdrawn), the old order of Axcess Floline trainers (& 478) are still hanging on; with only major failures likely to see them off for good now. Considering how utterly bomb-proof they generally are, that won't be happening for quite a while yet...
*: Correct me if I'm wrong, but this is the only L113 still in use anywhere within First UK Bus & surely a prime candidate for preservation once it's time comes...
