Glasgow single-deck trolleybus, Paisley Road Toll, 1966
These were the last single-deck trolleybuses to be built in the UK, and the last to remain in service. They were used exclusively on the suburban route 108 between Paisley Road Toll and Mount Florida which negotiated a low bridge. When built, special dispensation had to be obtained as they exceed the maximum permitted length for a bus at that time. In the background a double-deck trolleybus can be seen heading towards the City on route 106.
Also visible is the Imperial Bingo, formerly the Imperial Palace cinema, today still an entertainment venue as Glasgow's Gran Ole Opry country and western club.
