JWLHN785o

Subject: Bradford C. T. 844 (FWX 914) and 835 (LHN 785)
Chassis: Sunbeam F4 (FWX 914) and BUT 9611T (LHN 785)
Body: East Lancs H37/29F (FWX 914) and East Lancs H37/29F (LHN 785)
Location: Greengates, Albion Road
Date: 23-May-1971

It wasn't often you would see representatives of the two final batches of trolleybus together as the BUTs tended to work from Thornbury and the Sunbeams from Duckworth Lane. 835 is at Greengates terminus with 844, a type not normally seen here.

844 appears to be visiting during a tour, whilst 835 is displaying the wrong route number. It's quite possible the 40 and 42 were interworked at the Bradford end, as it's not the first photograph I've seen showing this number on a Greengates working.
