Photo of happy folk about to have a charabanc journey (1920s?) Elgin?

There appears to be a notice in one of the Windows over the head of the guy on the right. Maybe if you could get a high resolution scan of just the notice it may reveal where they are.

Looking at the back of the bus, there is a railing and a lot of open space. I wonder if it could be on the west bank of the river in Inverness?

The Town House there has lots of small spires https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/7480842

I think there's also a destination board at the front, though it's mostly hidden.

First, thank you very much to everyone for being so helpful.

I’ve looked at the possible destination details and poster on the side of the bus on original photo using a magnifying glass but no joy, I’m afraid. The photo is only 80mm x 55mm though.

Grateful for help on how I could get a high resolution image as Carol suggested.

A thought - since a location in the vicinity of Elgin is providing elusive, I’m wondering if the photo maybe shows some of the Gentleman family on my maternal Grannie’s side. They originally came from Hawick and went to Elgin before WW1 for family members to work as weavers in the Tweed and woollen mills before returning to Hawick.

Maybe a Border’s connection?

Have you dismissed my suggestion that it was in Inverness?

[Calleva]

Sorry Forfarian, it was remiss of me to jump the gun. Funnily enough I’d Googled ‘4 Spires Scotland’ and the first link that came up is a view in Inverness -

Following your message I went onto Streetview to see if there could be a possible location to match but couldn’t easily see one. So yes I think Inverness may not be right but as I live quite close will carry out a recce to be certain.

I’ll report after the visit, apologies again for not properly addressing your suggestion at the time.

Quick update - planning to be in Inversnecky at the weekend, also getting some expert help on whether the images can be sharpened to read the writing. VMT
