Gelligaer Urban District Council AEC Regal III Longwell Green 19
Gelligaer UDC was one of the three South Wales operators that were absorbed into Rhymney Valley District Council. The Gelligaer colours were red, grey and green - almost as eccentric as RVDC's chocolate, cream and yellow. This AEC Regal III, 19 (MTG884), is seen in Datchet on the Windsor Road Run, associated with the SHOWBUS rally in the Hillingdon Show days.
