Albion Road, Greengates ? 1966
Image: © Alan Murray-Rust Taken: 24 Jun 1966
Classic industrial urban scenery of the period, with gasholder and textile mills. Some of the latter buildings have survived, although not the gasholder https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2461846. Bradford trolleybus 675 has completed the circuit of the Greengates terminal loop and is heading back towards the city centre. It was built as early as 1939, by English Electric, although like the many Bradford trolleybuses it had received a brand new body in the 1950s. This is one of a series of views featuring buses in the 60s, 70s, and 80s. http://www.geograph.org.uk/search.php?i=2114547&displayclass=slide
