Summary

Description
English: British Trolleybuses - Manchester Stevenson Square was the terminus of trolleybus services to Audenshaw and Stalybridge via Ashton New Road. This was the very last day of trolleybus services in Manchester on 30 December 1966, although a commemorative tour was run the following day.

Also seen here is an Oldham Corporation bus; this is before the days of the SELNEC (later Greater Manchester) PTE when there was still a great variety of municipal operators running into central Manchester. Today the scene is dominated by the big groups First and Stagecoach.
