Comments Staff of the City of Gloucester Tramways Company certainly wore uniforms (see link), so the absence of marked buttons leaves three possible scenarios: 1, they never existed; 2, they existed but have yet to come to light; or 3, some form of monogram or script was used - e.g, 'CGT' - which is not readily identifiable as City of Gloucester Tramways.
