This card covered, 68-page A4-sized book traces the 100 year history of the trolleybus in the United Kingdom, both in service and in preservation. Illustrated with over 170 photographs plus the original 1911 trade article celebrating the joint starting of operation in Leeds and Bradford. This booklet celebrates the story of the trolleybus in the United Kingdom over one hundred years, largely through pictures of each system as well as of the main British manufacturers. Wherever feasible, colour views have been chosen; none, of course exist for earlier systems. An attempt has been made to source slightly older views to add interest, though this is sometimes at the expense of picture quality because of contemporary photographic technology. Larger operators are covered by several views, to show the variety of vehicle types, liveries, routes or locations. Systems are covered in broadly chronological order, sometimes neighbouring systems are grouped together and to provide at least one view of each system.
