A-Z of British Trolleybuses - Lockwood, Stephen
KORTE INHOUD
In the last century, the trolleybus developed into a successful provider of public transport in many towns around Britain. It is often described as being part tram and part motorbus. The trolleybus was a fast vehicle whose acceleration from rest was far superior to that of any motorbus. Added to this it was quiet and fume-free, and consumed home-produced electricity generated using coal. During the last twenty years, there have been many books about trolleybuses published, but hardly any of these has tackled the subject from the vehicle manufacturers' angle, instead concentrating on individual trolleybus systems. This volume is, therefore, a summary of the British trolleybus, describing each manufacturer and its products , and then showing what happened to these vehicles throughout their life.
