Description
E99944 – Clydeside 2000 Y-Type and RML Gift Set
This new gift set pays homage to Clydeside 2000 by featuring two notable vehicles from its
once extensive fleet. The first of these is again WLT900, although this time is depicted in its
circa 1992 condition in Clydeside 2000’s smart red and yellow livery. As fleet number G99, it
is presented as working a local service with a Greenock Town Centre destination.
The second vehicle in the gift set is one of the ubiquitous Alexander Y-Type bodied Leyland
Leopards, which again is adorned with the bold Clydeside 2000 livery as carried in the early
1990s. This dual purpose 49-seater carried fleet number 630 and came to Scotland following
a career with Lancaster City Transport. It is depicted working Service 17 to Glasgow via the
Clyde Tunnel.
The Y-Type features the later style of front grille design with twin headlights, and comes with
4-leaf doors – a combination never seen before on an EFE Y-Type.
