Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Witham Road, Broomhill Years ago the bank used to be the Williams Deacons Bank and the small addition to the left used to be Lotus - a shoe shop. Next door to that was Truelove - a ladies fashion shop. Now it is Wish Again. Trams ran along here and then double-deck buses. Now they run single-deck buses and have extended the route to Hillsborough.
For an early Sheffield Transport Department tram shot taken by my father of a rebuilt Standard Car http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a303/escafeld01/TRAM251-BROOMHILLb.jpg A line drawing of mine of an earlier STD tram, which shows the only surviving example of Sheffield's Standard Cars http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a303/escafeld01/TRAM189-LINEDRAWING-1.gif A photograph of mine of an early STD double-deck Leyland Atlantean PDR1/1 with Park Royal body, at Tinsley Railway Depot Open Day http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a303/escafeld01/STDBus1357.jpg Another photograph of mine of an even earlier STD double-deck Leyland Titan PD2 with Weymann H32/26R body, at Roscoe Bank http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a303/escafeld01/STDBus709.jpg The prototype Standard Car (numbered 1) was built by Cravens at Darnall, and entered service in 1927. Subsequently about 150 more were built at the Queens Road works and 25 were built by W.E. Hill & Sons in South Shields. From 19361939 the Queens Road works built redesigned Standard Cars, which were known as the 'Domed-roof' Class and had improved lighting and seats. The Leyland Atlantean was a model of double-decker bus built by Leyland (with bodies added by a variety of companies) in the United Kingdom from 1958 to 1986. The Leyland PD2s were built in the 1940s. I retain the copyright of the line drawing. Not to be reproduced without my permission. |
