19508

Subject: Merthyr Tydfil B. C. 200 (KDW 707P)
Chassis: Bristol RESL6L
Body: East Lancs B47F
Location: Cardiff bus station
Date: 6-Aug-1977

Yet more variety was provided on the Cardiff route by Merthyr's East Lancs-bodied Bristol RESL6Ls. They don't appear to have worked it too much and in fact don't appear to have been very successful vehicles, being withdrawn after only ten years and before the older ECW-bodied REs.

200 saw life with a variety of other operators and was the last of the batch to go for scrap, in 1997.
