Daimler CVG6 - CRG325C

If given half a chance to get more photos of this - you can guarantee that you'll see more. Having had the opportunity to have a proper look at this bus in person it's become a firm favourite just by virtue of being such a fantastic bit of engineering.

 

Looks the part too I reckon.

 

It's seen here when the preparatory work was pretty much complete for its use over the 2011 Festive period on the free weekend shopper service funded by the Aberdeen Business Improvement District. Despite it being freezing cold (there's no heating in the passenger saloon - and naught in the cab aside from a windscreen demister), I very much enjoyed the few trips I managed to catch on it. Would be great to see how it rode about 5mph as well...sadly on Union St in the run up to Christmas that's not really going to happen.

 

Hopefully I'll cross paths with this bus later in the year at some point again. I do have one or two other photos I'll be uploading later too.
