Decluttering

I've been scanning a couple of my pictures for which I can'tt find the original negatives or they are scratched etc. One of a large number of pictures taken at Nursery Avenue Kilmarnock during Western years is whsat I called "The other side of Scotmap" bus. This occupied this spot for a few years and contained the boxes of survey forms that constituted a large part of the process known as SCOTMAP a market analysis project undertaken by SBG in the early 1980s.

 

This elderly Leopard was pressed into service as a store, gradually losing more and more paint until it was eventually sold for scrap. In it's heyday it had been a black and white coach on cross border expresses. Here it had become one of the service fleets less glamourous vehicles.

 

This is a scan from one of those awfully cast colour prints which has faded almost to oblivion with an attempt made in paintshop to try to improve it.
