Red & White Coaches was set up by Stagecoach during April 2005 after taking over the operations and services of Pontypool operator Phil Anslow Travel, on 1st November 2004. The Anslow family complained that vehicles still carried their name.
The fleet was numbered into the Stagecoach series and consisted mainly of coaches and a few minibuses. The minibuses were repainted into standard Stagecoach livery.
A disastrous fire at the Pontypool depot overnight on Easter Sunday 2005 resulted in seven coaches being destroyed, while others received minor damage. To maintain contracts vehicles were drafted in from Stagecoach South Wales and other group companies. Some being returned when services were back to normal.
The business closed on 29th April 2006. Some vehicles will be repainted into Stagecoach livery, while others are stored.

Thank you for visiting my gallery. I've been photographing buses and trains for over 35 years, visiting most parts of mainland Britain. This is a new gallery and time permitting, over the coming months I hope to add many more galleries and collections of images covering that time span. So keep checking for the latest additions. To start with, here are some recent photos from around my home area of Monmouthshire.
