On 6th February this year Her Majesty The Queen became the first British Monarch to celebrate a Platinum Jubilee, marking 70 years of service to the people of the United Kingdom, the Realms, and the Commonwealth.

To celebrate this anniversary, there is a four day UK bank holiday weekend from Thursday 2nd to Sunday 5th June. To honour this celebration, Stagecoach South Wales have unveiled a bus dressed in a jubilee livery that is showing casing in different operating areas across South Wales.
