King Street, Aberdeen, 1977

A view of King Street, Aberdeen looking from Castlegate on a very sunny Wednesday 18th May 1977, the spire of the North Church of St Andrew's dominating the skyline. The bus about to make the left turn into Justice Street is Grampian Regional Transport 117 (GRS117E), an Alexander bodied Leyland Atlantean that had been new nearly ten years earlier in September 1967.

 

As it was in the days of the trams:
