Edinburgh Corporation took eleven unpainted lightweight Metro-Cammell Weymann 'Orion' bodied Leyland Titan PD2/20 buses (famously known locally as 'monstrous masses of shivering tin') between 1955 and 1957, though as with all other operators the unpainted finish was found to weather rather quickly.
