Huddersfield CT trolleybus, Marsden, Colne Valley, 1962
A breathtaking view over the Colne Valley towards Huddersfield taken from Stubbin Road, Marsden in September 1962.
An unidentified Huddersfield CT trolleybus heads out along the A62 Manchester Road towards Lingard's Wood and onto Huddersfield. The red brick chimney of Marsden UDC's sewage works dominates the middle ground. The body of water in the lower backdrop is the Sparth canal storage reservoir at Cellars Clough.
This route would close to trolleybus operations in the snowy January of 1963. The phased closure of Huddersfield trolleybus system would see the final trolleybus run into depot on 13th July 1968.
From an original 35mm slide held in my archive.
