THE
SCOTTISH VINTAGE BUS MUSEUM - YYJ914 (ESS
989
YYJ 914 is a 1961 Alexander- bodied Leyland Tiger Cub PSUC1/2 (currently badged as a Leyland Royal Tiger). It was the last of a trio new to Stark, Dunbar as ESS 989 and latterly worked with Eastern Scottish in Stark's livery. Its final use was as a racing car transporter, from which it was rescued for restoration. Much work will be required to return to its former glory, particularly at the rear end.

Hopefully, the owner will be able to provide a fuller history, and some other photos.
