A typical commuter-belt part of north-west England
We next board the 1535 First Cymru service 63 to Bridgend (Bus Station) that arrives there at 1625 on Wednesday evening.

Apologies for mixing up the number 5 with the number 8 in the departure time....down to an administering of eye drops....this posting now reads as it was intended to do originally.

The 1540 is Sundays only, but there is an earlier one at 1535, arriving at 1625, which I'll assume we will use...

That's also weird as I put us in Llansamlet, disappear for 24 hours, you travel all over England and Wales and I come back to us being down the road in Bridgend!!!


We depart from Bridgend Bus Station bay 7 at 1655 on Stagecoach South Wales service 172, from which we alight at Tonypandy Bus Station at 1751 on Wednesday.

Apologies, I was looking at the X2 timetable not the 63. But makes no odds anyway.

Tonypandy bus station is in one of those awkward locations where it is smack in between Tonypandy and Llwynypia railway stations, but just too far to walk to either one of them. Therefore we remain with the buses as we board the 1845 Stagecoach South Wales service 122 to Danescourt (Burne Jones Close), arriving there at 1957 on Wednesday evening.
