Not the best quality image (an Ektachrome dupe), but a classic scene; North Shore Electroliner rolling through Oakton Curve in Skokie. The North Shore was before my time- as a teenager taking pics of the CTA articulateds here in the 80's, this is of course what I thought of.

Opposite the entrance to Napier University’s campus, Wright GB Kite Electroliner number 2e (SV26 OFB) is on its long and winding diagram from the Gyle to Ocean Terminal.
I wasn’t sure if this bus was going to stop here, given there was nobody waiting, and just a few minutes earlier my friend, creator of the Edinburgh bus simulator, Pete Angus arrived. I suddenly had a great idea.
I’m always nervous to take pictures with these new type screens and didn’t want it to break-up if the vehicle wasn’t stationary, so with a tiny bit of persuading Pete agreed to hailing the bus and asking the driver if he was going to Firrhill. He wasn’t of course, and I managed to get a few shots like this one. It wouldn’t have mattered as a lady alighted from the bus anyway. She had heard Pete ask the question and said she was also going to Firrhill, but Pete didn’t quite know how to respond to that!
Job done, that’s all that mattered, thanks Pete :o)

Wright GB Kite Electroliner number 9e (SV26 OFK) races across the Dean Bridge, early on Saturday the 4th of July.
I wanted one of these here but with the new-style screens, and having to rethink the camera settings, this is a tricky shot to get in focus, and without the screen breaking up. Hats off to my Canon EOS 1200D and settings TV, 1/125 and 100 ISO which came up trumps today. I took ten consecutive shots and just this one worked.
The Dean Bridge was designed and built by Thomas Telford in 1831. It crosses the Water of Leith and the beautiful Dean Gardens below.
The splendid church has had a very varied life. Holy Trinity (free-Episcopal) Church was built in 1837-8 with its very original pinnacled profile. It is raised to the level of the bridge by a cloistral arcade like that of St. John's in Princes Street. In 1957 it was converted into an electricity transformer station and the South of Scotland Electricity Board removed the galleries and cast-aron arcades.
In recent years this magnificent Edinburgh landmark has reopened as an evangelist worshiping centre.
These tourists might have been better to turn around, and capture one of our new electrics on its very first journey!

Wright GB Kite Electroliner number 5e (SV26 OFE) arrives at the Gyle, and these nine new electrics have had to work hard during their first months.
The 36 is often crowded during the summer holidays and I travelled on several that carried full loads, turning waiting passengers away. On a half hour service, if you’re lucky, this isn’t good and I noted big buses to assist several times.
It’s not hard to see two together and the service is simply not as good as it should be, surely requiring to be on a 15 or 20 minute frequency.
I think the diagram is too long and why not operate it as the old 21 used to, one to Leith Links with the next continuing on the Royal Infirmary? One 36 could terminate at Balcarres Street and turn round with the next one going on to the Gyle. Then they might be less busy and run better to time. Just a thought.
5e looks stunning here and that livery design is hot!
