424 - BN64CSY (Kraken) - a photo on Flickriver

            Seen on Princes Street is one of at least three of Lothian Buses Wright Eclipse Gemini 3 bodied Volvo B5TL to be given an overall wrap for Kraken Rum.

The kraken is a legendary sea monster of gigantic size and cephalopod-like appearance in Scandinavian folklore. According to the Norse sagas, the kraken dwells off the coasts of Norway and Greenland and terrorizes nearby sailors. Authors over the years have postulated that the legend may have originated from sightings of giant squids that may grow to 13–15 meters (40–50 feet) in length. The sheer size and fearsome appearance attributed to the kraken have made it a common ocean-dwelling monster in various fictional works. The kraken has been the focus of many sailors passing the North Atlantic and especially sailors from the Nordic countries. Throughout the centuries, the kraken has been a staple of sailors' superstitions and mythos.

Looking like its been given a good squeeze is 424 - BN64CSY.
