Ah, the number 20 bus. Had a red ring around it's number at the bus stop which signified part route not sun. Used to go from Barnton straight along the Queensferry Road into town (no idea where after that although Hyvots Bank rings a bell). It was always know as the 20 part route not suns to we school kids back in the day.

@Radio Ga Gathanks for all the pics yesterday and today. Some awesome photos. Many I recognise the places others I dont but it doesnt diminish the enjoyment of looking at them. Much appreciated

If the poster doesn't mind too much I second that well stated compliment.

Agreed. This is the best thread on here. Great photos, genuine interest and no bickering and trolling wallopers to spoil things.
