Cardiff Bus 260 (H49 NDU) in Llanrumney - 27 Feb 2004

Friday 27 February 2004 (approx 1130) - Cardiff Bus (Bws Caerdydd) 260 (H49 NDU), 1991 Leyland Lynx 2. Cardiff operated about 29 Lynx 1 models (231-259) bought in 1989-1990, 260 was the first Lynx 2 and was a former demonstrator bought from Leyland’s successor, Volvo Bus Limited, in 1991. It was followed by a further 11 new buses of the same type (261-271). It was seen on Burnham Avenue at Llanrumney, a large residential estate on the north eastern side of the city when working the 1103 service from the central Bus Station. When I took a ride on this bus I did not realise that it was a little different to all the others.
