Summary
| Description |
English: British Trolleybuses - Teesside The Teesside Railless Transport Board was a joint operation between Middlesbrough Corporation and Eston UDC. It was built to serve the steelworks along the south bank of the River Tees. It was the only trolleybus system operating after the 2nd World War which had not previously been a tramway.
In this picture the trolleybus is passing one of the coking plants which manufactured coke for the blast furnaces. This plant has completely disappeared, although a nearby plant still exists as the last reminder of steelworks in the South Bank district itself. Steelmaking is now concentrated further east in Lackenby and Redcar. For a slide show of British Trolleybuses in the late 60s https://www.geograph.org.uk/search.php?i=1773236&displayclass=slide |
