The third of Michael Yelton's fascinating histories in the Prestige Series about the smaller South Wales municipal operators deals with the transport undertaking of Gelligaer Urban District Council which was based in Glamorgan, unlike the previous Councils which have been dealt with and which were in Monmouthshire. Although Council owned buses did not commence working until 1928, the pre-war fleet contained such interesting specimens as an AEC Renown and two AEC Qs in a fleet of around 20 buses. The first double-deckers did not arrive until 1949 and the post-war period saw further joint working between Urban District Councils, which outside of South Wales were never many in number. The book is illustrated almost entirely from the collection of Roy Marshall.
