Oldham 231 was one of the first batch of buses bought by Oldham after the war. They replaced the last Oldham trams and were the last 7' 6" wide double-deckers bought new by Oldham as 8' were adopted even before it became a legal width for general use. This bus was preserved for a while but sadly scrapped by 1970. It is seen here in happier days of preservation at the Great Western Hotel on Standedge and was on its way to Huddersfield and Bradford for tours of the trolleybus systems.
