DescriptionBlack and white photograph of unidentified Leyland Atlantean loading at Shiprow, city centre bus stop - Route No.1. Attached note reads "Although the numbers of passengers carried by public transport within the city of Aberdeen has been gradually falling since the end of world war II, it is still very substantial. In the last full year it was 67,657,746 as compared with 120,583,260 in 1948. The energy crisis is likely to cause a distinct revival. Here a no.1 route bus is picking up passengers in Castle Street. Double doors in driver-operated vehicles permit the entry and exit of passengers at the same time.
