More about this scene

By the time this picture was taken, the tram routes through Denton had been converted to trolley and petrol bus operations. The 1930s saw a number of towns and cities abandon tram routes in favour of trolleybuses; they were partially influenced by the findings of a Royal Commission on Transport. The Conran Street - Denton service was converted in December 1934, and the Ashton - Denton route in November 1936.
