Lothian 865 turns into Forrest Road, Edinburgh.
865 is seen exiting Teviot Place and turning into Forrest Road in the heart of the University of Edinburgh's central area. On the left is the Doctors pub ( so named as the building behind the bus is the Medical School). Service 41 crosses the city from the University's science and engineering campus at King's Buildings in the south to Cramond, one of the city's more expensive suburbs, in the northwest. As new buses are delivered, the current policy seems to be to do away with the upper display showing the line of route ( in this example Blackhall, Mound, Marchmont) and just have the destination and service number as a digital display. On former Edinburgh City Transport buses, the upper display might have as many as five places listed. With Cramond being on the shores of the Firth of Forth, this route and other routes serving Silverknowes, provide ideal access for those wanting coastal walks.
