115 at the Union Canal
Crossing the bridge over the Union Canal here's Volvo 115 on a beautiful day
approaching the shopping precinct at Westside Plaza, Wester Hailes. It's a
busy and complicated area with two bus lanes used for terminus and
intermediate stopping. Buses going one way (and those turning) use one lane
while the other lane is used for buses returning into town in an almost
figure 8 diagram. Very confusing indeed for the bus spotter and I never know
which way they're coming from or going next!
Good view here of the larger wing mirrors and note one of Edinburgh's seven
hills at Corstorphine in the distance. Now just over there you'll find all
the zoo buses turning up at Clerwood.
A very different scene compared to where we are here with Service 30. From here this bus will usually travel a further couple of miles to the very remote and lonely terminus at
Clovenstone, but here note the somewhat premature change of screen to St. Andrew's Square indicating that this bus is perhaps terminating at Westside Plaza (some do some don't!).
