The service formed part of the wider Cardiff Bus network and was one of three services to have a unique branding, along with Baycar and Capital City Red.
The upgraded service was introduced in 2007 when Cardiff Bus deployed on the route six out of 15 new Scania OmniCity vehicles which it had purchased at a cost of £2.5 million.[1]
