Super Prestigewest Mon

摘要

For Many Enthusiasts of a certain age, the definining feature of the West Monmouthshire Omnibus Board - to give West Mon its Sunday name - was Bargoed Hill, the incline of almost 2,000ft in gradients ranging from 1 in 8 to 1 in 4.5 at its steepest that took its buses between Aberbargoed and Bargoed in the Rhymney Valley after negotiating a 90deg turn under a low and narrow railway bridge.rnTo operate the route, this municipal undertaking that also had a little of the autonomous status of post-1986 arms' length bus companies ran a succession of specially purchased buses -Swiss Saurers, a pair of Fodens and principally various models of Leylands - with features to enable them to operate safely.
