Title
Open Top Bus, Todmorden - ALC00603
Description
Outside the White Lion & Greyhound, Shade.
An early open top bus with external stairs at the rear to the upper deck and solid rubber tyres. Open top buses were not popular in winter and started to be replaced by covered top deck models from the mid-1920s.
This is a Habergham bus from the Burnley/Nelson area, which had come to the Greyhound public house to take a party to Blackpool. The journey we are told took about 4 hours. Information from Ken Lobley.
