Doncaster 351 (FNY 983) Balby Road John Law

Subject: Doncaster C. T. 351 (FNY 983)
Chassis: Karrier W
Body: Roe H34/28R
Location: Doncaster, Balby Road
Date: c.1960

Doncaster 351 had been Pontypridd 10 and it had the distinction of being the hundredth trolleybus to enter service with Doncaster after it was rebodied by Roe. It is seen here on the Balby service approaching Carr Hill with Westfield Park off to the left.

10 and 11 were unique amongst the Pontypridd utilities in having English Electric traction equipment. On this vehicle even that ended up being replaced by Metrovick equipment when the original motor burnt out around 1960.
