Subject: National Welsh RD4772 (CWO 296K)
Chassis: Bristol RELH6G
Body: ECW DP47F
Location: Porth depot
Date: c.1982

RD4772 heads a line-up of coaches and dual-purpose vehicles alongside the bottom shed. This was the last of thirteen dual-purpose REs bought in 1972 which were unusual for Red & White in having Gardner engines, otherwise only the first two batches had that power unit, all others having the Leyland engine.

RD4772 evidently became a Porth vehicle for a time and has a New Rhondda local identifier on the front.
