EATM ~ Trolleybus Weekend

Last weekend saw the East Anglia Transport Museum hold their annual Trolleybus Weekend and, as usual, buses were running to and from the event.

First was operating the Park and Ride service which was provided by First Norwich branded Wright StreetDeck SN65OMU

A surprise Saturday visitor was ECW bodied Brstol MW5G 3014AH. It was new to Eastern Counties in March 1959 and initially based at Wisbech. It is now owned by Patrick Burnside.

Noted at Gordon Road was the museum's Bristol ECW bodied Bristol FL6G 557BNG ready to leave for Carlton Colville. Behind is First's heritage liveried Dart 42926 SN05EAE.

Sunday saw the use of a Park Royal bodied Routemaster on services in the form of RM613 WLT613. New in December 1960 it is currently owned by the RM613 Preservation Group.

Meanwhile later at the museum site former Lowestoft vehicles were assembled together in the car park.

My thanks to Simon Bartram for supplying the photos covering the two days
