This was an AEC Y-type built in 1919 as a Tower Wagon for servicing the tramway overhead. It was rebodied as a bus in 1921, and the photograph was probably taken at that time

This was a Railless Trolleybus and was new in 1923. Halifax operated 3 electric trolleybuses on a route between Pellon and Wainstalls from 1921 to 1926

This is an AEC Regal single decker, possibly photographed in 1937, but dating from the early 1930s. I cannot read the registration number to know exactly which bus it was, but the style is more of the early 1930s. It looks to me like it is heading up Solomon Hill to Midgley

This was a Daimler CVG6 double decker of the Halifax Joint Omnibus Committee. It was new in 1954, and is pictured when fairly new because it is in the livery style of the period

in the book Halifax Passenger Transport, Geoffrey Hilditch says that the driver of the last tram – Number 109 – was Whiteley Lumb as the tram service closed on 14th February 1939
Chris Ratcliffe adds that
This is an official photograph taken on the 15th of February 1939, the day after the trams finished, so it may possibly not be Whiteley Lumb on the tram, and it was probably tram 109's very last trip to the Shay Wall to join her sisters for scrapping, she had been driven in to the depot on the 14th, all the others were put round the back

This is a Leyland Titan PD2 double decker of Halifax Corporation, and it was new in 1948. I do not think it is new in the photograph, more likely taken in the late 1950s/early 1960s
