Hereford sees Stagecoach deckers on the X3 from Cardiff most days since Cwmbran got its Enviro 400s and I think they still work up from Ross on Wye.

Cardiff? Had one and will have one sometime next year but nothing since 2015.

29901 is 198UUO, a Bedford SB/Duple Vega and 29902 AFJ77B, an AEC Reliance/Harrington originally new to Greenslades.
