Unloading the newspapers at Aberdeen bus station – 27 Mar 2001

Tuesday 27 March 2001 (approx. 1120) – The carriage of parcels and newspapers on the rural bus services in northern Scotland has always played an important role. Staff of Stagecoach Bluebird assist with the unloading of the bundles of the (very) early edition of the ‘Evening Express’ at the old Aberdeen bus station. The bundles would soon be on their way to the far flung parts of the area on the next available service departures thus ensuring they reach the readership by the evening. The railway station stands on the right.
