Subject: Crosville Cymru CTL92 (SIB 9492)
Chassis: Leyland Tiger TRCTL11/3R
Body: Plaxton Paramount C51F
Location: Cardiff bus station
Date: c.1996

This coach had been new as London Country (Green Line) TPL49 and registered A149 APA. With the break-up of London Country it joined the London Country North West fleet, later joining the Luton & District fleet as 149. Luton & District created a new Chiltern European coaching fleet in 1993 and this coach then became 208 in that fleet, also receiving the new registration shown here. It joined the Crosville Cymru fleet in November 1994 and is seen here still in the livery of Chiltern European loading up for the afternoon return trip to Aberystwyth.

Both this and the other former Green Line Tiger CTL 83 (SIB 8583) spent almost their whole time with Crosville Cymru based at Dollgellau depot.
