Subject: National Welsh U4068 (RTG 319F) Chassis: Leyland Leopard PSU3/4R Body: Willowbrook DP49F Location: Maesteg, Market Place Date: c.1979
RTG 319F is seen in its final condition, demoted to a bus as U4068 with bus seats and NBC bus livery. It's somewhat ironic that this bus transferred to Bridgend from Porth is working a route much associated with the 1962 Western Welsh Leopards whilst at the same time at least one of that batch was working from Porth.
As the market is in full swing in the background it's likely that this view was taken on market day, which in Maesteg was on a Friday.
