Two Stagecoach buses, Upper Race, Pontypool
The buses are parked in a large turning area, http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2452743 the terminus of Stagecoach route 12 from central Pontypool. Neither of the buses are on this route. They both arrived displaying "Not in service", stayed here for about 20 minutes, then left. As it was mid-afternoon, my guess is that the drivers had been on school bus duty, then arrived here for a break, before continuing on to services on other routes.

Horse and sulky, Upper Race, Pontypool
While I was waiting at the Blaendare terminus http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2452743 for the Stagecoach route 12 bus to central Pontypool, a horse, sulky and driver appeared at speed from Blaendare Road , http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2452762, did several circuits of the turning area, then returned along Blaendare Road.
A sulky is a light two-wheeled horse-drawn vehicle for one person.
