Subject: Taff-Ely BC 20 (HUH 409N) Chassis: Leyland National 10351/1R Body: Leyland National B41F Location: Pontypridd, Berw Road Date: 3-May-1986
20 enters Pontypridd from Glyncoch followed closely by a Clayton Jones (Shamrock) competing vehicle. This is the period prior to deregulation where some services were allowed to start up without meeting the historic requirements of demand previously required for the issue of Road Service licences.
The Clayton Jones vehicle is a Bristol LH6L with ECW body that was new as Western National 1583 and had passed through several owners including Plymouth City Bus. Although it had received several different liveries along the way, the one carried here is not much different from that it would have carried with Western National.
