Let’s see if I can get it on the right thread this time. This is a photo of the No 7 Martineau St to Nechells trolley bus taken in 1940. It is a 1932 Leyland TB2 with a Short Brothers Body. Only 11 buses were added to the fleet of this class all with dummy radiators to conform to the public’s idea of how a bus should look.
The photo was obviously taken during the war years as can been seen by the blackout precautions and the white paint decoration to the adjacent pole.
I have no idea what I have just wrote about it all came from a book, but I have it on good authority that Steve used this bus every day to go to work every day (well nearly every day) when he lived in Nechells.
