Subject: Newcastle C. T. 13 (BVK 803)
Chassis: AEC 664T
Body: English Electric H33/27D
Location: Preston, Dick, Kerr Works
Date: 1935

Posed looking immaculate and very modern for its day is 13. It carries the original yellow, maroon (or chocolate) and cream livery with green mouldings. After the war the fleet adopted the cadmium yellow and cream livery which continued into PTE days but it is unlikely that this trolleybus carried that livery - the whole batch was withdrawn by 1950.
