Subject: Rhondda Buses 149 (F392 DHL)
Chassis: Mercedes-Benz 709D
Body: Plaxton Beaver B20FL
Location: Caerphilly, Castle Street
Date: 25-Jan-1997

For reasons that aren't clear, 192 carried a unique livery in its time with Rhondda Buses and it doesn't seem to be one it carried with a previous operator. It was the only vehicle with the side fleet name in cream letters on a red background.

The C79 service had only recently been introduced and ran from Caerphilly to Bedwas (Bryn Glas) via Heol Bro Wen. It was a daytime service only and seems to have been interworked with the C78, introduced at the same time, which served Castle View.

The doors for the rear wheelchair lift can just be seen through the vehicle.
