I've put this in the Glasgow section because it is an ex-Glasgow box, albeit relocated to the Grampian Transport Museum and given a bit of a Mark II look. I believe this is another of Ward's boxes.

Feel free to re-locate this thread if it could be in a better section.

It is indeed mine. But I hate the signs.

Apologies if this has already been posted (I did search for the words "Grampian" and "transport" to see if anything popped up and it didnt) but I found this blue box on TripAdvisor - apparently it resides at the Grampian Transport Museum in Aberdeenshire.

Here's the page I stole the image from: http://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/LocationPhotoDirectLink-g635931-d211663-i77418867-Grampian_Transport_Museum-Alford_Aberdeenshire_Scotland.html#77418867 Apologies the original photographer/uploader.

And a better (again stolen, sorry) picture of this box:

Again, I didn't find this elsewhere here, so will be happy to delete this thread if this box is already covered.

Nice find davidnagel.

To keep things together, the new Topic created in "TARDIS Sightings" has been merged with the already existing Topic on this Box in the "Police Box Catalog" of "Currently Existing TARDIS-like Police Boxes".

Thanks! I did think there must have been a thread already. This one is hard to let pass by!

Oooof.  The box was definitely looking in a sad state in 2007 (when the photo was taken), thank goodness that genuine lamp was added, as the earlier one was a bit of a mongrel.

Is this box no longer there? I was looking on Google Earth in Street View mode and there now appears to be a red K6 phone kiosk where I believe the Police Box once stood.

Looks like it, the banner image on their website also shows the K6 box in that location: https://www.gtm.org.uk/
