40 years since the closure of Walsall's trolleybus system
40 years ago today (3rd October 1970), Walsall's trolleybus system closed and the power was switched off for the last time. The closure left only Teesside and Bradford operating trolleybuses in Britain, although their days were very much numbered.
To commemorate Walsall's trolleybuses and commiserate the system's closure, here is my small tribute, a picture of Trolleybus 855 making its way along Bloxwich Road towards Walsall town centre in 1968.
If you want to see more Walsall trolleybuses, or trolleybuses in general, then please check out my Trolleybus set.
