Subject: Inter Valley Link 73 (A73 VTX)
Chassis: Leyland Tiger TRBTL11/2RP
Body: East Lancs DP47F
Location: Cardiff bus station
Date: 14-Oct-1988

73 parks to one side in the bus station waiting for its return journey on the 29, the route to Caerphilly over Thornhill. At the time this was still quite an infrequent sevice but was to be more frequently served in the minibus era.

These Tigers had been very early recipients of the Inter Valley Link livery. 72 was the first in the livery from Sep-1985 whilst 73 here was painted in Dec-1985.
