Subject: Creamline MTX 308
Chassis: Leyland Royal Tiger PSU1/13
Body: Leyland B44F
Location: Neath, Victoria Gardens
Date: Jun-1959

New to John, Coity (Coity Motors) this Royal Tiger ran for Creamline from 1957 to 1964.
The destination blind was clearly intended for a deeper aperture.

Behind is United Welsh 1271 (MCY 43), a 1956 Bristol LS6B with ECW B45F body. United Welsh was originally part of the Red & White group and shared a fleet number series. This numbering pattern continued for some time after the two fleets were separated and is reflected in the high fleet number for what was quite a small fleet. It was renumbered 100 in 1966 and then when United Welsh were taken over by South Wales in 1971 it was renumbered again as 354.
