The Huddersfield trolleybus system in the UK closed on 13th July 1968. All street trolleybus operation ceased in the UK when Bradford closed on the 26th March 1972. Since then, the only trolleybus operation in the UK has been in museums, such as the Trolleybus Museum at Sandtoft.


Huddersfield trolleybuses 541, 631 and 619 (541 undergoing restoration) at the Trolleybus Museum at Sandtoft, and a very fine sight they make too!
It is hoped that 541 will go back into service during 2010.
 


Huddersfield 619 is seen here passing the latest acquisition. This is Edmonton 189, a GMC/BBC 'fishbowl' trolleybus imported all the way from Canada. It arrived at the Trolleybus Museum in October 2009, and has been tested around the site. It will be launched into service in mid-April 2010.

This site is dedicated to Trolleybuses in general, but Huddersfield Trolleybuses in particular.
