Pompey trolleybus heritage

The East Anglia Transport Museum at Carleton Colville is one of a handful of UK locations where one can still enjoy a ride on trolleybus. These were once one of my favourite forms of transport, and I shall forever regret the demise of the final trolleybus system in Bradford in early 1972. Seen here is preserved Portsmouth Corporation 313 (ERV938), a BUT 9611T with Burlingham bodywork, one Pompey’s final batch of trolleybuses, delivered in 1951. Portsmouth ended trolleybus operation in Summer 1963.
