Stagecoach in South Wales 20359 was one of the 'first generation' Alexander PS-bodied Volvo B10Ms to be allocated to Aberdare depot for what was then Service 172 (Aberdare-Rhondda Valleys-Bridgend-Porthcawl).
The batch of six operated the service until 2011, losing their dual-purpose seating for new bus seats in 'beachball' moquette in the process, and were then replaced by sisters 20385/7-9/91/2, with whom they then exchanged their seats.
20359 was one of five that were sold to James Travel Group of Pontcynon in early 2012 for use on school contracts, and she was sold on to for preservation in August 2015.
This October 2009 shot depicts Autumn in Tonypandy Bus Centre as she waits time on a return journey to Aberdare.
Wonderful Machines.
