I've added a smaller gallery on the trolleybuses of these two operators, the majority of the material relates to the last months of operation and features the final tour. The gallery is at http://davidbeilby.zenfolio.com/f480400271

Additional information:
The public part of the final day's tour started in Stevenson Square and being a Saturday it was busy. Visible in this view are two Oldham buses (an Atlantean on the 98 to Waterhead on the left and a PD3 visible through the gap to the right on the 24 to Rochdale). To the right is Manchester 3437 (PND 437) on an 80x to Middleton. In the distance a PD2 disappears on the 10 to Greenfield (meaning it is on the odd hour) whilst one of the 3331-3370 batch of Leyland-bodied PD2s arrives on a replacement 215 motorbus service. The coach is Sheffield 900 (9000 WB).
