Subject: Ashton C. T. 87 (YTE 826) and Manchester C. T. 1320 (ONE 720) Chassis: BUT 9612T Body: Bond H32/28R (YTE 826) and Burlingham H32/28R (ONE 720) Location: Ashton's, St. Michael's Square Date: c.1956
Both these trolleybuses were based on BUT 9612T chassis built at the former Crossley works in Erwood Park, Stockport. Ashton 87 has fortunately survived in preservation.
The "Bus Stage" sign visible between the two trolleybuses is of Manchester's style - it's rather surprising to find one in the middle of Ashton.
