Karrier W trolleybus 793 (GHN 575) on Route 40 negotiating the roundabout at Saltaire. The vehicle dates from 1944 having been a single-decker with Darlington Corporation Transport, then transferred to Bradford in 1957. It was then rebodied by East Lancs as a 71-seater, after which it entered service in Bradford in 1958. In Spring, 1960, it had a single seat removed under the stairs, so allowing 8 standing passengers, instead of the previous 5. It was withdrawn in July, 1971.
