Belfast trolleybuses on Falls Road - 1968

Heading to the Casement Park terminus on service 12 with Milltown Cemetery in the background. This was part of the last remaining trolleybus route in Belfast, running across city to Whitewell and would cease operation 4 weeks after my visit. The building to the right has been replaced by a Sainsbury's superstore. The leading trolleybus is no.197, a BUT 9641T with locally built Harkness bodywork, built in 1949. This is one of a series of views featuring buses in the 60s, 70s, and 80s. http://www.geograph.org.uk/search.php?i=137652761
