Summary
Could be the best open top bus ride in Britain. Like <a href="//commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:View_of_Gallt_y_Wenallt_and_Lliwedd_from_the_valley_road_-_geograph.org.uk_-_3049.jpg" title="File:View of Gallt y Wenallt and Lliwedd from the valley road - geograph.org.uk - 3049.jpg">3049</a> this was taken from the layby in Nantygwryd Valley looking towards Penygwryd.

New to Crosville [see <a class="external free" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crosville_Motor_Services">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crosville_Motor_Services</a>] 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.
