Subject: London Ceremony Bus GNY 915 Chassis: Bristol L6G Body: Beadle B32R Location: based at Kapellen, Antwerpen Date: unknown
The seemingly-unwanted 51 was sold to London Ceremony Bus in Belgium in 1998. It was in poor condition and had to undergo a major rebuild with virtually new framing. It has been restored in a livery which appeals to their client base but is also tasteful, and the restoration is very sympathetic to the vehicle, which has several other classic British buses for company.
After an exceptionally long life in Pontypridd, 51 is still earning money for her owner, by a long way the last Pontypridd or Taff-Ely bus to do so.
