Being trialled from today twixt Ferrytoll and Edinburgh rail and tram interchange.
Not really driverless though, as when fully operational it will not only have a driver to monitor systems but also a “Bus Captain” … to hold nervous passengers hands maybe, and tackle fires which worryingly are far more frequent nowadays than when the old busses now retired to Lathalmond were manned by fearsome Kelty Clippies!
Anyway, a presumably far more expensive vehicle and double the crew doesn’t make much economic sense to me!
