Details: 189C was new in March 1936 as the first Leyland Cub Trolleybus Rescue Truck, and it could immediately be recognised by its flat roof. The 6 similar Cubs that followed later that year had the same rounded roof as seen on the Albions. Although lettered for Fulwell Depot, this photograph is surely taken at Stonebridge Park depot, with the BR carriage sidings in the background. This depot still stands although now in alternate use, and at least one trolleybus traction standard pole is still visible from passing trains.
