Two Ford Transit minibuses were bought in 1979, anticipating the trend for such vehicles which was to peak in the late ‘eighties. They were bought for the new local services in Taff’s Well and also the service to Graig-yr-Helfa.
30/31 (CBO 30/31V) were Ford Transits with Dormobile B16F bodies and entered service in September 1979 (30) or November 1979 (31). They lasted until just before de-regulation, being withdrawn in June 1986 and passing to the new company formed at de-regulation as withdrawn vehicles.
