Subject: Rhondda Buses 18 (C118 HUH)
Chassis: Ford Transit 190D
Body: Carlyle B16F (on Dormobile shell)
Location: Caerphilly bus station
Date: 1992

18 was another of the early National Welsh Transits to receive Rhondda Buses livery with Caerphilly Busways fleet names. It had been new to Crosskeys depot.

It only spent a short time in the fleet as before the end of 1992 it had joined Red & White (along with most of the other ex-National Welsh Transits) receiving fleet number 261. It later passed to Mainline as their 105 and was used on an unsuccessful town centre service in Doncaster - being free it wasn't expected to be successful but still carried few passengers.
