1. Title: A Piece of Transport History: The Yorkshire Woolen District Transport Company Bus Ticket This photograph showcases an original bus ticket issued by the Yorkshire Woolen District Transport Company from Dewsbury, Yorkshire. The exact date of this vintage ticket remains a mystery, adding to its allure and historical intrigue. The Yorkshire Woolen District Transport Company was a significant player in the public transportation sector of the region during the early 20th century. This bus ticket serves as a tangible reminder of the company's rich history and the role it played in connecting communities within the district. The design of the ticket is simple yet elegant, with a red and green color scheme that reflects the company's branding. The top of the ticket bears the name "Yorkshire Woolen District Transport Company" and the destination "Dewsbury," indicating its place of origin. The bottom half features a grid of spaces for the ticket holder to fill in the date of travel, the fare paid, and the conductor's signature. The use of the term "Woolen District" in the company name is a nod to the region's historical reliance on the woolen industry. The textured background of the ticket, reminiscent of woven fabric, further emphasizes this connection. This bus ticket is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the transportation history of Yorkshire and the YWDTC's role within it. Its worn edges and faded ink add to its character, making it a cherished piece for collectors and history enthusiasts alike.
