Tramcar operation in Aberdeen ended on Saturday 3 May; the normal Bridge of Dee-Bridge of Don service ceased at 18.00 when a fleet of new Metro-Cammell or Park Royal-bodied AEC Regent Vs took over. That evening, a six-tram procession took place from Bridge of Dee to the Town House, joined over part of the route by one of the original horse trams. The replacement Bridges bus service was extended at each end to Balgownie and Garthdee, incorporating previous bus/tram feeder routes.
