Subject: Merthyr Tydfil C. T. 146 (CHB 411D)
Chassis: Leyland Titan PD3/4
Body: East Lancs H41/32F
Location: Cardiff bus station
Date: 17-Apr-1971

Some four years after the first view of it here 146 is seen in the same location, by now carrying the later livery. Just visible is the small driver's mirror also fitted to 145.

Cardiff City had just finished playing, hence the youths with the blue and white scarves. They lost 0-1 at home to Watford, the start of a disappointing end to a season that led to them just missing out on promotion to the first division. The season had certainly had high spots, including beating Real Madrid 1-0 at home (although they ended up losing 2-1 on aggregate).
