082 Play time.

082 Play time. A popular way to re-use out of service buses was to convert them to a playbus, offering a safe play environment for children generally from inner-city areas. Pictured around 1983 is former Dundee Corporation Daimler Fleetline bus number 298 GYJ398G which was new to the city fleet in 1969. Many of Dundee’s playbuses were re-painted at the Dock Street Depot and in one case a playbus later returned to the bus fleet for further service.
