THE appearance of Edinburgh buses in and around Glasgow has caused confusion for some in the city.
The burgundy Lothian Buses, which are normally only seen in the capital and in the East Coast, have crossed the M8 to our hometown - but why?
Lothian Bus coaches have been spotted in the city centre and in the streets of the South Side, with one good reason why.

The buses, in fact, were being used to help facilitate a shuttle bus service for the Euro 2020 matches at Hampden.

Fans and match-goers were able to use the service from the city centre to help travel to the national stadium in Glasgow's South Side.
Hampden Stadium hosted four matches as part of the Euro 2020 tournament, including two home matches for the Scotland national team.
The last match at the stadium as part of the competition took place last night in a tie between Sweden and Ukraine.
