A Sunbeam F4A trolleybus at Eston Square en-route to North Ormesby via Normanby and South Bank. The vehicle, which has Burlingham 68-seater bodywork, entered service with Reading Corporation Transport in 1961, then transferred to Teesside Municipal Transport in early 1969, after Reading closed its trolleybus system in November, 1968. However, it didn't see much service on Tees-side as its own trolleybus system closed in April, 1971.
