036 Dundee first.

036 Dundee first. On 25 March 1954 experimental exact fare bus number 22 CYJ315 entered service. This AEC Regal IV, bodied by Alexander, was built as driver-only from new and featured an American Johnson fare box. The flat fare of 3d, in excess of the standard 2½d, and union requirements requiring a conductor to be present meant the experiment only lasted for a few months. The bus was later used as a coach and, at one stage, the centre door was panelled over. It was sold in 1974. THE LATE MICHAEL H. WALLER / COURTESY PETER WALLER
