Subject: Western Welsh 20 (TUH 20)
Chassis: Albion Nimbus NS3N
Body: Harrington DP30F
Location: Cardiff bus station
Date: c.1966

Albion Nimbus 20 stands out of the way during a layover at Cardiff, prior to the next trip to Creigiau.

In contrast with some of the other Nimbuses seen on this service, this one always ran in normal bus livery, featuring the Western Welsh device on the side instead of the fleet name. This was only otherwise done on dual-purpose vehicles at the time and was presumably done because the full fleet name would have looked out of proportion on such a short bus.

24 was withdrawn in 1967 and after a spell with Office Cleaning Services it was exported to Eire where it was re-registered AIL 3007.
