This is the story of Belfast's trolley bus system, told through an eclectic collection of over 200 photographs, from its opening in 1938 to its closure in 1968. During that time it had the largest number of operating trolley buses in the UK outside London Transport's enormous fleet.246 trolley buses ran over 37.50 miles of route and but for World War II, and a subsequent change of policy by a new general manager, the size of the operation would have been even greater. Rather than look at the trolley bus routes David Harvey concentrates on each of the 246 vehicles, showing them in their geographic, historic and social settings. Belfast Trolley buses From Old Photographs is the latest in an impressive repertoire of transport titles from this prolific author.
