Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Crossgates, Leeds After World War II, Leeds found itself short of trams to handle the very busy post-war traffic. Old balcony cars were not considered fit to be used and were scrapped, so to replace them Leeds sought second-hand cars from cities that were abandoning their tramways, including Hull, Manchester and Southampton, but the most aignificant purchase was of some 90 'Feltham' cars from London. The first of these arrived in 1949, and these cars gave sterling service over the next ten years until the final abandonment in Leeds in November 1959. Here, car 521 is just leaving the Crossgates terminus for its cross-city journey to Middleton. |
