JLJ23721

Subject: Taff-Ely BC 83 (TDW 313J)
Chassis: Leyland Atlantean PDR1A/1
Body: Alexander H43/31F
Location: Aber, Nantgarw Road
Date: 29-Mar-1983

Ex-Newport Atlantean 83 only just manages to squeeze under the bridge at Aber station and I suspect the official height of the bus was greater than that shown on the sign! The bus shelter was functional but hardly welcoming.

This is one of the type that retained its Newport livery until withdrawn.

Sadly the semaphore signal is no more and there is now a colour light signal in a similar location, but for traffic in the opposite direction.
