50th Anniversary of London Trolleybus Closure

Yesterday, the 8th May, was the actual 50th anniversary of closure of the London trolleybus system.

The London Trolleybus Society held a private event for various transport/ trolleybus preservation related groups.

At the conclusion of the day London trolleybus 1521 (FXH521) carried decorations as it appeared in 1962.

Overall the museum reports that the London 2012 Event was a great success with visitors coming from far and wide; including California and New Zealand.

My thanks to regular contributor Tim Major for the report and pictures of the private event.
