Organised transport services commenced in Bradford in 1882 and
since then the streets have witnessed the passage of horse trams,
steam trams, electric trams, trolleybuses and motor buses. Author
David J. Croft has assembled an unrivalled collection of
photographs dating from the earliest years of public transport to
the present day, and this selection of around 200 takes the reader
on a comprehensive tour of transportation past and present. For
many years the services were under municipal control, but numerous
other operators have come and gone. The city pioneered trolleybus
operation in 1911 and has the distinction of being the last place
in Britain to operate this environmentally friendly form of
transport. Besides traditional Bradford vehicles, less well-known
vehicles are depicted, plus those preserved in museum collections.
Bradford Transport promises to prompt fond memories among the
city's older residents, and to acquaint the younger generation with
its tremendous heritage.
