Summary
| Description |
English: Bedwas Colliery with local bus, near to Bedwas, Caerphilly/Caerffili, Great Britain.
The bus belonged to Bedwas and Machen UDC. This was one of the smallest British municipal operations, with no more than 6 or 7 buses owned at any one time. This view is at Llanfabon, on the service between Caerphilly and Trethomas to which they had exclusive rights. They also had a share with other operators in the long route between Newport and Rhymney Bridge. The concern disappeared with the local government reorganisation of 1974 when it merged with Caerphilly and Gelligaer UDCs to form Rhymney Valley District Council. Llanfabon was essentially a council estate built in the post war period to provide accommodation for the miners at Bedwas Colliery, which can be seen in the background. |
