Depicts a double-decker red bus on the road through Rhondda with a motorcycle passing beside and mining machinery overhead. This was painted during his post-war period which saw the production of paintings that reflected both his childhood in the grey steel town of Dowlais and his new life in the green landscape of Devon.
