Subject: Rhondda Buses 35 (D35 KAX)
Chassis: Iveco 49-10
Body: Robin Hood B21F
Location: Pontypridd bus station
Date: 6-Jun-1992

35 was one of the type to receive Rhondda livery but this did not seem to extend to the addition of fleet names or numbers.

From 1991 journeys via Trealaw (normally those to Blaenrhondda) were given a separate number, T5 and two of the six buses an hour stopped short at Porth and didn't run to Pontypridd. Not too long after this photo the services up the Rhondda Fawr would revert to full-size bus operation.

Behind 35 is Red & White 361 (PBO 674R), a Leyland Leopard PSU4D/2 with Plaxton Derwent B47F body. New to Hill's of Tredegar it passed to Capitol, Cwmbran before joining the Red & White fleet.
