Stagecoach Highlands is the division of the Stagecoach Group which covers most of the former Rapson Group operations after the take-over by Stagecoach in May 2008. The operation from Aviemore depot comes under the East Scotland division as it trades as Stagecoach in Inverness.
History
Rapsons Coaches covered the Highlands and Orkney. Rapsons also covered Shetland till 2004 and also took over the bus opeartor in Shetland and Orkney, Shalder Coaches. Orkney Coaches had a logo saying 'Orkney' with many of their services opearting around the Orkney Islands. However, the takeover happened in May 2008 and was finally complete in 2009. Some of the Rapson colours and logo are still on some of the fleet but have the Stagecoach logo at the front and the 'Rapson' logo on the side and both the Rapsons and Stagecoach logo still there.
