Corporation Bridge, Alexandra Dock, Grimsby in August 1986. Built in 1925, this lift bridge replaced an earlier swing bridge. It was designed by Alfred C Gardner, Docks Engineer to the LNER, and built by Arrol & Co of Glasgow. The little Morrison milk float of Northern Dairies was an added bonus!

Metro Cammell bodied Leyland PD2 UNM 149 was one of a number of similar vehicles acquired by Luton Corporation in the second half of the 1950's and gave good service to the undertaking, passing along with a number of it's stablemates to United Counties in January 1970. It is seen here parked up in Bute Street, Luton alongside 'The Engine' PH which is the only thing in this view that survives now - the warehouses behind having been demolished in the early 1970's as part of the Arndale Centre construction with Library Road having been built through the site to link Silver Street with Bridge Street. This shot can be dated fairly well by the presence of a MK1 Ford Escort in the shot; the model was first introduced in November 1967.

Liverpool, Southport and Wallasey were also represented with buses painted in their respective liveries.
The American Circus Corporation consisted of the Sells-Floto Circus, the Hagenbeck-Wallace Circus, the John Robinson Circus, the Sparks Circus, and the Al G. Barnes Circus. It was owned by Jerry Mugivan, Bert Bowers and Ed Ballard. They sold the company in 1929 to John Nicholas Ringling for $1.7 million ($30.2 million today). With that acquisition, Ringling owned virtually every traveling circus in America.
Hagenbeck-Wallace Circus
The Hagenbeck-Wallace Circus was a circus that traveled across America in the early part of the 20th century. At its peak, it was the second-largest circus in America next to Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey Circus. It was based in Peru, Indiana.
Al G. Barnes Circus
Al G. Barnes Circus was an American circus run by Alpheus George Barnes Stonehouse.
Sells Floto Circus
The Sells Floto Circus was a combination of the Floto Dog and Pony Show and the Sells Brothers Circus that toured with sideshow acts in the United States during the early 1900s.
John Robinson Circus
The John Robinson Circus was founded by John Robinson and Joseph Foster.
Sparks Circus
Sparks Circus as established by John H. Wiseman (1863-1903). He used the name of Sparks on all of his entertainment shows and legally changed his name to John H. Sparks. He died on January 29, 1903.
"Manner (German pronunciation: [ˈmanɐ]) is a line of confectionery from the Austrian conglomerate, Josef Manner & Comp AG. The corporation, founded in 1890, produces a wide assortment of confectionery products. These include wafers, long-life confectionery, chocolate-based confectionery, sweets, cocoa and a variety of seasonal products.
The company's best-known product are the "Neapolitan wafers", introduced in 1898. They are sold in blocks of ten 47 x 17 x 17 mm hazelnut-cream filled wafers. The hazelnuts were originally imported from the Naples region in Italy, hence the name. The basic recipe has remained unchanged to this day.
The company logo is a picture of St Stephen's Cathedral in Vienna. This dates to the 1890s, when Josef Manner opened his first shop next to the Cathedral. The Archdiocese of Vienna and the Manner Company agreed that the company may use the cathedral in its logo in return for funding the wages of one stonemason performing repair work on the structure.
The Stephansplatz is a square at the geographical centre of Vienna. It is named after its most prominent building, the Stephansdom, Vienna's cathedral and one of the tallest churches in the world. Before the 20th century, a row of houses separated Stephansplatz from Stock-im-Eisen-Platz, but since their destruction, the name Stephansplatz started to be used for the wider area covering both. To the west and south, respectively, run the exclusive shopping streets Graben (literally "ditch") and Kärntner Straße ("Kärnten" is the German for Carinthia). Opposite the Stephansdom is the Haas-Haus, a piece of striking modern architecture by Hans Hollein. Although public opinion was originally skeptical about the combination of the mediaeval cathedral and the glass and steel building, it is now considered an example of how old and new architecture can mix harmoniously.
The Stock-im-Eisen ("staff in iron") is located at the corner of Kärntner Straße and Graben in a niche on the corner of the Palais Equitable. It is a section of tree trunk into which hundreds of nails have been hammered since the Middle Ages, and which is ringed by an iron band closed by a large padlock. The earliest written mention of it dates to 1533 and it is the subject of legends about the Devil.
Vienna (/viˈɛnə/; German: Wien [viːn]) is the national capital, largest city, and one of nine states of Austria. Vienna is Austria's most populous city, with about 1.9 million inhabitants (2.6 million within the metropolitan area, nearly one third of the country's population), and its cultural, economic, and political center. It is the 6th-largest city by population within city limits in the European Union.
Until the beginning of the 20th century, Vienna was the largest German-speaking city in the world, and before the splitting of the Austro-Hungarian Empire in World War I, the city had 2 million inhabitants. Today, it is the second-largest German-speaking city after Berlin. Vienna is host to many major international organizations, including the United Nations, OPEC and the OSCE. The city is located in the eastern part of Austria and is close to the borders of the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Hungary. These regions work together in a European Centrope border region. Along with nearby Bratislava, Vienna forms a metropolitan region with 3 million inhabitants. In 2001, the city center was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site. In July 2017 it was moved to the list of World Heritage in Danger. Additionally to being known as the "City of Music" due to its musical legacy, as many famous classical musicians such as Beethoven and Mozart who called Vienna home. Vienna is also said to be the "City of Dreams", because of it being home to the world's first psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud. Vienna's ancestral roots lie in early Celtic and Roman settlements that transformed into a Medieval and Baroque city. It is well known for having played a pivotal role as a leading European music center, from the age of Viennese Classicism through the early part of the 20th century. The historic center of Vienna is rich in architectural ensembles, including Baroque palaces and gardens, and the late-19th-century Ringstraße lined with grand buildings, monuments and parks.
Vienna is known for its high quality of life. In a 2005 study of 127 world cities, the Economist Intelligence Unit ranked the city first (in a tie with Vancouver and San Francisco) for the world's most livable cities. Between 2011 and 2015, Vienna was ranked second, behind Melbourne. In 2018, it replaced Melbourne as the number one spot and continued as the first in 2019. For ten consecutive years (2009–2019), the human-resource-consulting firm Mercer ranked Vienna first in its annual "Quality of Living" survey of hundreds of cities around the world. Monocle's 2015 "Quality of Life Survey" ranked Vienna second on a list of the top 25 cities in the world "to make a base within." The UN-Habitat classified Vienna as the most prosperous city in the world in 2012/2013. The city was ranked 1st globally for its culture of innovation in 2007 and 2008, and sixth globally (out of 256 cities) in the 2014 Innovation Cities Index, which analyzed 162 indicators in covering three areas: culture, infrastructure, and markets. Vienna regularly hosts urban planning conferences and is often used as a case study by urban planners. Between 2005 and 2010, Vienna was the world's number-one destination for international congresses and conventions. It attracts over 6.8 million tourists a year.
Evidence has been found of continuous habitation in the Vienna area since 500 BC, when Celts settled the site on the Danube. In 15 BC the Romans fortified the frontier city they called Vindobona to guard the empire against Germanic tribes to the north.
Close ties with other Celtic peoples continued through the ages. The Irish monk Saint Colman (or Koloman, Irish Colmán, derived from colm "dove") is buried in Melk Abbey and Saint Fergil (Virgil the Geometer) served as Bishop of Salzburg for forty years. Irish Benedictines founded twelfth-century monastic settlements; evidence of these ties persists in the form of Vienna's great Schottenstift monastery (Scots Abbey), once home to many Irish monks.
In 976, Leopold I of Babenberg became count of the Eastern March, a district centered on the Danube on the eastern frontier of Bavaria. This initial district grew into the duchy of Austria. Each succeeding Babenberg ruler expanded the march east along the Danube, eventually encompassing Vienna and the lands immediately east. In 1145 Duke Henry II Jasomirgott moved the Babenberg family residence from Klosterneuburg in Lower Austria to Vienna. From that time, Vienna remained the center of the Babenberg dynasty.
In 1440 Vienna became the resident city of the Habsburg dynasty. It eventually grew to become the de facto capital of the Holy Roman Empire (800–1806) in 1437 and a cultural center for arts and science, music and fine cuisine. Hungary occupied the city between 1485 and 1490.
In the 16th and 17th centuries Christian forces twice stopped Ottoman armies outside Vienna, in the 1529 Siege of Vienna and the 1683 Battle of Vienna. The Great Plague of Vienna ravaged the city in 1679, killing nearly a third of its population.
In 1804, during the Napoleonic Wars, Vienna became the capital of the newly formed Austrian Empire. The city continued to play a major role in European and world politics, including hosting the Congress of Vienna in 1814/15. After the Austro-Hungarian Compromise of 1867, Vienna remained the capital of what became the Austro-Hungarian Empire. The city functioned as a center of classical music, for which the title of the First Viennese School (Haydn/Mozart/Beethoven) is sometimes applied.
During the latter half of the 19th century, Vienna developed what had previously been the bastions and glacis into the Ringstraße, a new boulevard surrounding the historical town and a major prestige project. Former suburbs were incorporated, and the city of Vienna grew dramatically. In 1918, after World War I, Vienna became capital of the Republic of German-Austria, and then in 1919 of the First Republic of Austria.
From the late-19th century to 1938 the city remained a center of high culture and of modernism. A world capital of music, Vienna played host to composers such as Brahms, Bruckner, Mahler and Richard Strauss. The city's cultural contributions in the first half of the 20th century included, among many, the Vienna Secession movement in art, psychoanalysis, the Second Viennese School (Schoenberg, Berg, Webern), the architecture of Adolf Loos and the philosophy of Ludwig Wittgenstein and the Vienna Circle. In 1913 Adolf Hitler, Leon Trotsky, Josip Broz Tito, Sigmund Freud and Joseph Stalin all lived within a few kilometres of each other in central Vienna, some of them becoming regulars at the same coffeehouses. Austrians came to regard Vienna as a center of socialist politics, sometimes referred to as "Red Vienna"(“Das rote Wien”). In the Austrian Civil War of 1934 Chancellor Engelbert Dollfuss sent the Austrian Army to shell civilian housing such as the Karl Marx-Hof occupied by the socialist militia." - info from Wikipedia.
Summer 2019 I did a solo cycling tour across Europe through 12 countries over the course of 3 months. I began my adventure in Edinburgh, Scotland and finished in Florence, Italy cycling 8,816 km. During my trip I took 47,000 photos.

KTJ502 - Leyland Tiger PS1/Burlingham
New 1949 Haslingden Corporation 2. (N.E.B.P.T.)
Cumbria Easter Rally 2023.
Wearing the colours of Fowlers of Holbeach Drove is former Southend Corporation 341, a 1965 Leyland PD3 with Massey bodywork.
Actually I think it was officially 'Thamesdown' in July 1974.
This 1962 PD2 has Weymann bodywork. I have to say that I found that grille design really ugly!
Leeds experimented briefly with two modern single-deck trams constructed by Charles Roe of Leeds - but the writing was already on the wall for the Leeds tramway system. The blue livery illustrated (the lighter of two different shades used at different times) replaced the traditional dark red and was, itself, replaced by green when buses took over.
In reality, this is a mirror image of a 1971 single-ended HTM tram preserved at the Hague Transport Museum in the Netherlands. Built under licence by La Brugeoise in Belgium, it is a late development of the classic American 'Presidents Conference Car' (PCC) without the fussy window arrangement of the earlier design (Updated 03-Nov-12).

From a 1950 publication on British Commercial Vehicles some examples of those often ignored but very necessary vehicles that help keep our villages, towns and cities clean.
An interesting use of a quite archaic term to descrive refuse colelctors as 'scavengers' here but a fine collection of municipal and commerical refuse collection vehicles on various chassis bodied by a variety of specialist builders. The Karrier CK3, described as 'handsome' and I think that's a first for a dustcart. is for the Harrow UDC, an authority that became the modern LB Harrow but that was about to lose the UDC to become a Municipal Borough in 1953. The telephone number is of course one of the old London exchange names, BYRon.
The Carrimore vehicle appears to be destined for Éire, although it looks ot carry a UK registration, and is I think for Limerick Corporation. The other tree are Ford Thames Tippers, Scammell "Scarb" tipper and a J H Jennings WD type vehicle.

The Corporation invests in almost everything. Naturally, it needs something to move its large investments of everything. Thus, the Capital Freighters were put into use.
1935, Portsmouth Corporation Leyland Titan TD/4 RV6358, seen at Bodiam station on the Kent & East Sussex Railway.
Former GM Buses Leyland Olympian 3253, now masquerading in preservation as a Wigan Corporation vehicle and numbered 53.
It is seen performing a shuttle service for the 2016 Wigan beer festival between the town centre and the festival site at Robin Park, this is the latter location.
El cotxe 602 de Blackpool Corporation va entrar en servei el juliol de 1934. Construït per English Electric va ser el primer dels vehicles de serie en entrar en servei, després del prototip 600. L'any 1968 va ser renumerat 602.
A nice selection of buses in December 1975. Is that bus behind one of the AEC Reliance demonstrators that operated for London Transport as the RW class?
Seen here turning from Leagrave High Street into Oakley Road in Leagrave in the mid-1960's heading for Cutenhoe Road is Leyland PD2 / Weymann WTM 153 of Luton Corporation which had been new to the undertaking in April 1959. This was one of a number of these Leylands to pass to United Counties in January 1970 and was repainted into Tilling green livery, surviving in service for a couple of years.

The photo reverse is stamped with the photographer (and/or negative owner) name of C. Carter.
LCT tram No. 6 was built as an open top car in 1904 by the 'Electric Railway and Tramways Carriage Works (Preston)' seating 22/34 and running on a 4 wheel Brill 21E truck. By 1927 it had a top cover fitted, and by 1934 had been rebuilt as fully enclosed. It was withdrawn from service and scrapped just before the parts of the LCT system that had not already been withdrawn or transferred to bus closed in Nov 1949.
