Pembrokeshire Pointer - 1
First Cymru received 40 Transbus Pointer-bodied Darts in 2003 as a long overdue investment in the fleet.
Among these were three 11.3m Super Pointers fitted with six cylinder engines, numbered 750-2, and registered in Dundee by the vehicle manufacturer. They were for then Service 103 (Llandeilo-Ammanford-Pontarddulais-Swansea), operated by Ammanford sub-depot, which they served for a number of years. In the 2003 national fleetnumbering exercise, they became 43901/3/2, in registration mark order.
Having had a stint at Swansea Ravenhill depot, they transferred to Haverfordwest depot during 2017 for allocation to Service 302 (Haverfordwest-Johnston-Milford Haven-Hubberston), However, they were replaced by Alexander Enviro200s 44634-6 within a year, and moved on to Port Talbot depot. 43901 was withdrawn a few months back, but the other two soldier on.
My October 2017 shot was taken on the A4076 between Merlin's Bridge and Johnston, as 43903, still retaining her original foglights, shot past on a 302 journey to Hubberston.
