The merger also brought with it a second National Holidays.[1] This was the former East Yorkshire Travel, a subsidiary of the East Yorkshire bus company which had been renamed on being sold in 1997 and become part of the Wallace Arnold group in 2001.

Scottish Omnibuses Ltd. (SOL) was a company set up by the British Transport Commission in 1949 to take over the bus and coach operations of Scottish Motor Traction (SMT) and its subsidiaries under the nationalisation provisions of the 1947 Transport Act. SMT itself remained in private hands, continuing its motor sales, service and insurance businesses.[2]

SOL took over the holding of SMT's subsidiary companies,[2] while those buses and coaches it operated directly retained the SMT name until the early 1960s, when, after a brief flirtation with "Scottish", the fleet name "Eastern Scottish" was adopted.[3]

Following the demise of the British Transport Commission, the SOL group was re-formed as the Scottish Bus Group under the state-owned Transport Holding Company in 1962; this later became the Scottish Transport Group in 1969 following the addition of ferry services.

SOL itself remained as a bus and coach operator, trading as Eastern Scottish, until reorganisation of the group in 1985, when it was split into Eastern Scottish Omnibuses Ltd. and Lowland Scottish Omnibuses Ltd.

The music was composed by George Fenton[4] except where otherwise stated.
