Much of Robert's early photographic output showed his love of electric traction, trams and trolleybuses featuring strongly. He was resident in New Milton at the time and attended college in Bournemouth, so that town's trolleybus network is very well represented.
I think there may be as many as 1000 Bournemouth negatives from the period 1959 onward - only about 20 of these are motorbuses!
This picture dates from c.1962 and shows Bournemouth Corporation 1934 Park Royal bodied Sunbeam MS2 207, ALJ62, (new as 86) in Avenue Road.
The bus is near the end of its long life and bodywork sag is becoming evident.
