Trolleybuses in Derby
The Derby trolleybus system once served Derby, the county town of Derbyshire in central England. The trolleybus service started in 1932 and ran until 1967.
==History==
The Derby trolleybus system opened on ,〔〔 and it gradually replaced the Derby tramway network. The trolleybus system was opened just a year after London United Tramways, although nearby Nottingham had started using trolleybuses five years before. The trolleybuses operated by Derby Corporation led to the last Derby tram being eventually withdrawn from regular routes at the end of June with a special last journey on 2 June 1934.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.picturethepast.org.uk/frontend.php?keywords=Ref_No_increment;EQUALS;DMAG001944&pos=57&action=zoom&id=25772 )〕
By the standards of the various, now defunct, trolleybus systems in the United Kingdom, the Derby system was a medium-sized one, with a total of 11 routes, and a maximum fleet of 73 trolleybuses.〔 The system was much cheaper to run than motorbuses but the end was signalled when proposed extensions to the network were blocked by protest to the additional poles and cabling that would be required. The system was closed on .〔〔
There were over the years 165 Derby trolleybuses although this figure includes six that were second-hand. Five of the former Derby system trolleybuses are now preserved. One of them is at the Trolleybus Museum at Sandtoft in Lincolnshire, a second one is kept at the Westgate Transport Museum, Belton, near Sandtoft, and a third is based at the East Anglia Transport Museum, Carlton Colville, Suffolk. The other two are privately owned.〔
