JB43-05

Subject: Maidstone & District 28 (BDY 803)
Chassis: Sunbeam W
Body: Park Royal H30/26R
Location: Hastings, Cambridge Road
Date: 21-Feb-1959

In 1957 the Maidstone & District fleet name replaced the Hastings Tramways one and 28 is seen showing off the later fleet name. It is in Cambridge Street which was quite narrow but formed the end of the A21 road. It has now been pedestrianised with the A21 route diverted onto other streets.

28 is working to Silverhill, where the tram and later trolleybus depot was situated. It would later become Bradford 813.
