Summary

Description
English: Could be the best open top bus ride in Britain. Like 3049 this was taken from the layby in Nantygwryd Valley looking towards Penygwryd. Unlike 445520 this spectacle was for one weekend only!

New to Crosville [see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crosville_Motor_Services] as DVG512, this venerable Bristol VR is the last survivor of its kind in a former Crosville depot.

For a few days at the end of September 2006 it performed the S2 Snowdon Sherpa service ferrying walkers, cyclists and other tourists between Betws y Coed and Pen y Pass.

This appears to be the only time an open top VR was used on this service. For this photographer, here was the highlight of the Crosville centenary year.
