December Duplication - 2
Stagecoach in South Wales recently reduced the frequency of the Pontypool to Cardiff section of Service X3 (Hereford-Abergavenny-Pontypool-Cwmbran-Cardiff) from half hourly to hourly. This inevitably means that the Alexander Dennis Enviro300-bodied Scanias usually allocated are requiring duplication or substitution on busy Saturdays, particularly in the pre Christmas period. The capacity of the six Transbus ALX400-bodied Tridents transferred from the East Scotland fleet as replacements for the last Volvo B10Ms has proven ideal for this role.
This shot of 18008 was taken in Callaghan Square, Cardiff on the last Saturday before Christmas 2019, when she had been enlisted to operate the service on an all day diagram which would take her to both Hereford and Cardiff.
