Perth and Kinross folks (and visitors), I just learned about the council's free local bus scheme on the first Saturday of the month. This Saturday, etc.

Postcard, from 1930, is of a bus at the Devil's Elbow on the old Glen Shee road. From the Philip Smith Collection at the Mount Blair Community Archive - https://www.mountblairarchive.org/

A photo of an old postcard showing a black-and-white image of a vintage bus (c. 1930) making a very steep, very tight bend on a road on the side of a hill. In the background are the hills of Glen Shee. The postcard is printed with the words, 'Negotiating the top bend of the Devil's Elbow Glenshee / The highest public road in Britain, altitude 2000 feet, steepest gradient 1 in 3'.
