LA352 was new to Glasgow Corporation in May 1967 running from Larkfield Garage. In 1972 it transferred to Knightswood and then returned to Larkfield in 1975. It was withdrawn in 1979 and passed to Allander Coaches in Milngavie, one of several of the type acquired for contract work. In 1980 it moved south of the border and was with several operators during which time it was ‘re-registered’ MUS 281F. In 1985 it joined the Edwards Travel fleet in Llantwit Fardre in Wales.
It was acquired for preservation in 1998 and reunited with its original registration KUS 607E. It arrived in Bridgeton Bus Garage in March 2020 and will be restored by the GVVT’s Back on the Road scheme.
