Richard Berridge Richard Berridge has been drawing steam engines for as long as he can remember, whereas London trams and trolleybuses left him with early memories of the terrors of the descent into the Kingsway tram subway to visit an uncle in Forest Hill, and frequent visits by 662 trolleybus to an aunt in Harlesden. Details of how to purchase a print [560*410mm - thumbnail shown] of a 1948 tramway scene at the Alms Houses in Croydon are given, with the promise of a further painting to follow of open-top trams on the last days of operation [and trolleybuses on test] at Crystal Palace. |
