Szeged Közlekedesi Társaság (trademark of Szegedi Közlekedesi Kft.): the Szeged trolleybus network is relatively modern, as the first line was put into service on April 29, 1979. Currently the network consists of six lines.
Here we see trolleybus number T-800, still painted in the old Szeged trolleybus colors.
It is part of a series of 10 trolleybuses of the Škoda 21Tr model, from different origins. Only one of them was purchased new by Szeged (the T-800 in 2001). The rest were acquired second-hand from three Czech cities: T-801 to 803 from České Budějovice, the T-810 from Chomutov and the T-811 to T-815 from Plzen.
Despite joining the Szeged network on August 30, 2001, the T-800 was serving as a demonstration vehicle in the Czech city of Ostrov (1998), in the Polish cities of Lublin (1999) and Gdynia (2000), in Moldova's Chișinău (2000) and in Latvia's Riga (2001).
