Subject: Western Welsh 141 (141 DBO)
Chassis: Leyland Leopard PSU3/3R
Body: Duple Northern Alpine Continental C49F
Location: Abergavenny bus station
Date: 19-Aug-1964

In its original Western Welsh livory of ivory and red, the red was quite difficult to spot as apart from the background to the fleet name it was only a very small amount around the main body side windows. At the time Western Welsh's coaches did not show an external fleet number nor did they carry a depot allocation diamond.

141 is having a stop in Abergavenny on an excursion to Hereford and as the photograph is on a Wednesday it is likely to be a trip to Hereford market.

141 would join the Creamline fleet in 1976.
