To provide yet more capacity a number of vehicles was hired during the war. Notably fourteen different ST-type AEC Regents were hired from London Transport for varying periods between 1942 and 1945 but there were also nine AEC Regals from Western Welsh and, from South Wales Transport, a single-deck AEC Renown six-wheeler and a Dennis Lancet.
In 1944 Rhondda's new utility vehicles were Daimlers and in the same year also came two of the more unusual CWG5 model from Devon General in exchange for two Guy Arbs, the Daimlers became 193-194 (HTA 881-882).
