Facing the camera is Ashton-under-Lyne trolleybus number 80, registration LTC 774. Built in 1949, this is a locally constructed Crossley TDD42/2 two-axle double-deck trolleybus with a Crossley body, one of five built for Ashton. This vehicle was the last of the five to be withdrawn in 1964. It is currently under restoration but the body has been repainted in Ashton's distinctive red, white and blue 1950's livery.
