Pontypridd 98 (NNY 511E) Caerphilly

Subject: Pontypridd UDC 98 (NNY 511E)
Chassis: AEC Reliance 6MU4R
Body: Willowbrook B45F
Location: Caerphilly, Castle Street
Date: 1968

98 passes the Castle whilst returning to Pontypridd.

These 1967 Reliances had space for a route number which was never used. However, the destination blind which was originally on the offside was later moved to the nearside. This is presumably because originally the handles for changing the blind would have been towards the nearside. With the advent of one-man operation it was considered desirable for blinds to be changed from within the cab - hence the move.
