Trolleybuses in East Central London

Continuing the series of the pictorial survey of London trolleybuses, this book embraces routes that operated in the eastern part of the Central area. Commencing at Gardiners Corner the journey moves to Aldgate where a large number of views are used to illustrate the many aspects of trolleybus operation at this important terminus. Route 653 takes the reader up to Hackney; then two routeings to arrive at Bloomsbury. Moving to Liverpool Street, route 649 is followed as far as Dalston Junction; the mythical Dalston Stoke is featured. Continuing with the 581 Holborn Hall is reached. During this part of the book, 1253 and 1348, both preserved, are seen at Old Street. Returning to Islington, two different ways of getting to Smithfield are illustrated. As some of this book is in north London tram territory several pictures of cars on the subway routes are illustrated. This A4 softback book includes 423 black & white and 12 colour photographs as well as a map allowing readers to study the wiring layouts.
