Many know my more recent genre Buses and Girls photography as those earlier buses I really like have all gone so now I enjoy my bus hobby more for the photography. As well as being an artist I owned a small transport business before I retired but today I have a little job too driving a minibus dong a school run to Wolverhampton in the afternoon and occasionally other jobs. It gets me out and about and satisfies my childhood ambition to drive a bus.

Hills of Tredegar
Perhaps the best known coach operator in wales was Hills of Tredegar with between fifty and sixty vehicles. As well as mostly Leyland coaches it also had a few service buses too and this early Leopard L1 dating from 1960 has been preserved. XWO 911 seen at the bus rally in Merthyr Tydfil it shows off the features that were so characteristic of these Burlingham underfloor bus and coach bodywork.
