Like many things time has moved on and eventually the company was taken over by Lothian Buses in the early 2000s. Fortunately this did not mean the end of the opportunity to ride around the city on a vintage half-cab. A further number of former London Routemasters were acquired and were placed into service and even in 2011 a few survive to transport passengers around the cobbled streets still in the fleet livery. Other developments saw the Mac Tours name applied to several more modern buses that operated on various stage services and illustrated here.
