Taken in April 1973, this photo shows 55 (EHO 228) a 1942 Guy Arab II with Reading 56-seater bodywork built in 1955 in Eastwood Boulevard on a tour of Southend-on-Sea's former trolleybus system. This location was worked by routes 28A/B which went via London Road, Nelson Road and Fairfax Drive until the closure of the trolleybus system on the 28th October 1954. This vehicle was owned by Provincial (Gosport & Fareham Omnibus Co.Ltd) but is now preserved. The buildings behind the vehicle have since been demolished.
