No Deckers please
Adventure Travel's contracted TrawsCymru Service T6 (Swansea-Neath-Crynant-Ystradgynlais-Sennybridge-Brecon) is registered to pass under the low railway bridge - which carries the South Wales Main Line - in Commercial Street in Neath in both directions. The service observes the bus stop outside the Railway Station rather than the Victoria Gardens terminal, and the use of Commercial Street further reduces the time penalty for serving the town.
I'm aware of only one double-decker to have lost her roof to the bridge and that was SWT ECW-bodied Bristol VR 993 in the early 1990s, which sealed her fate.
My shot goes back to June 2022 and depicts Adventure's Optare MetroCity OM162 passing through when green was still the primary colour used for TrawsCymru services. I cursed the pedestrian under my breath at the time, but in hindsight his presence probably enhances the image.
