Summary[edit]

Description

Seattle trolley bus 943, in service on route 2-West Queen Anne, loads at a stop in downtown in 1953. Trolley bus 943 was built in 1942 by Twin Coach. This view is looking east on Pike Street from First Avenue; the street was still two-way at the time, and the trolley bus is facing west, but Pike Street was later made eastbound-only.
