Subject: Bradford C.T. 685 (CAK 685)
Chassis: Karrier E4
Body: Crossley H33/26R
Location: Thornbury, Leeds Road
Date: c.1956

This rear view of 685 shows it in original livery with a grey roof which included the whole of the rear dome. Following the arrival of the ex-Notts & Derby trolleybuses which carried a similar livery but with a blue roof, Bradford also adopted the blue roof.

On this view you can also just see the tubes holding the bamboo trolley poles needed for re-wiring, underneath the rear panel.
