A year ago, at the start of 2015, Edinburgh was seeing much interesting bus activity with the fleet group of new 25 Volvo B5TL / Gemini 3's (401 to 425) establishing themselves in the city and also 20 new single deckers, Volvo B7900 hybrids (31-50) just entering service as well. These 45 new buses made for much photographic work and fortunately the weather was crisp and sunny for the Christmas and New Year period.
At the start of 2016 all is rather quiet with no new vehicles joining the LB fleet. With the weather being so gloomy and wet this festive season the requirement to get out with the camera was therefore somewhat diminished and so enthusiasts like me took advantage of the situation and had a little rest!
As we progress through January the principal Lothian fleet news belongs to the Dennis Tridents with only eight remaining in the 1999 Harlequin livery. Just a handful left of what was 650 and with them now returning to engineering works for repainting it shouldn't take more than two or three months to bid farewell to the red and gold squares and diamonds. In March it will be exactly six years since the project to return the entire Lothian public service fleet to its traditional colours began.
Sightings of harlequin buses are rare now and they take the eye. Here is number 670 (SN04 AAZ) resting at the tranquil terminus of Clerwood, alongside Corstorphine woods working on Service 26. Based at Marine shed this is not an unusual working but seeing a Harley up here these days certainly is!
I never would have imagined that I would make a special effort to come up here to spend time with one of these but when they're as rare as this it seems a worthwhile and enjoyable pursuit.

the AMAP-670 (Armored Mobile Adaptive platform) was designed by SC-77 after the high feed back from the Annihilator's multiple movement modes, the AMAP-tank was built for high speeds in tank mode, while the legs could fold out to provide extra stability or lift the tank over any and all obstacles.
it is powered by a miniature nulear fusion core that provides the enormous energy requirements to fire the main electromagnetic rail cannon as well as the the transistor motors and servos
the four legged tread base was also used in SC-77's Artillery concept #4 although that tread base was smaller
the main cannon is custom built, using parts from the Lunar Rail (useing electromagnetics to transport cargo to and from the moon) this is the largest rail gun ever built and it's firepower limitations are unknown
the right rocket mount is an auto-loading-high-range rocket pod, capable of firing up to three MK78 rockets, these are capable of acquiring targets from a great distance and have a very high yield cone-burst blast for maximum damage against heavily armored targets.
the left gun mount is an auto targeting energy gun/missile combo designed to quickly eliminate smaller threats approaching the AMAP-tank. the main guns are MK15 plasma cannons, and the missile pods are standard MK49-Seekers designed to eliminate multiple enemies simultaneously.
NOTES: the main design has not changed from the previous post, I have generally decided not to worry about continually modifying designs I have already posted but I felt this one need a few improvements
main changes went into the two mounts on either side as the main turret, the new rocket pod used some ideas from SuperHardcoreDave (mostly just the use of the round flats in the joint parts as rockets)
also tried to improve the main cannon integration to the body
added some side platting (which can be raised via hinge to access the gear to turn the turret)
and a few minor visual armor fillers
