Image 4 Ayr April 1984 RAY WARD (Large)
Another of Ray’s favourite locations is Ayr. Snapped some 40 years apart outside Rabbie’s Bar in the town’s Burns Statue Square, Ray says that he has photos going back to 1976 at this same spot, featuring lots of liveries and types of vehicles, but adds that he doesn’t lament the passing of the Seddons as pictured in his 1984 shot. The typically Scottish Alexander Y-bodied vehicle in Western Scottish colours is on route 203 to Kincaidston, and contrasts with the Stagecoach BYD ADL Enviro200EV heading to the same destination on route 3 four decades later.
