A recent day out took friend Peter Rose and myself into pastures new when the transport delights of ‘Sandtoft Trolleybus Museum’ were explored
As we have done before, we have combined all the images we gathered on the day.
The credits being joint D.Basford/P.M.Rose.
One of the elements of going to somewhere like a museum where you have an idea what you are going to see is that it is always interesting to see what else just turns up.

I was amazed to see this turn up, I had no idea that it had survived.
New in 1960 and rebuilt to open top in 1974.

Yeates were always known for the amount of chrome trim they could get onto a coach.
It must have added considerably to the all up weight.
This, by their normal standards, was quite restrained.
‘Fowlers’ is a company that, when I last looked, is still with us.
New in 1958.
