Comment The council's 'Electricity and Tramways Committee', which dealt with tramway matters, was renamed the 'Electricity and Transport Committee' in 1930; it is possible that this change was soon reflected across the undertaking as a whole, and that new uniform issues (to both tramwaymen and busmen) after this date may well have borne the Pattern 2 button.
