Brighton Trolleybus Picture Gallery

Just looked your pics...very nostagic! How foolish we were to dispense with the trolleybus. Maybe you can put to rest what I assume is an urban myth?

Is there a stock of redundant trolleybuses locked behind the great doors in the side of the hill on the Kemptown industrial estate?

If you can give me the definitive on that I'll stop dreaming.

A wonderfull trip down memory lane. New Malden was my home town for many years, I can remember the 406, bad occasions when we went to the dentists, and other times when we went to Kingston to go fishing in the Thames. Then of course, the picture house in Kingston and all those Teddy Boys. Thanks for bringing all those wonderfull memories back. All the best. Rod.

What a labour of love you have created.

I grew up in south west London and travelled on the 604 Wimbledon/ Hampton Court. I loved the trolleybus and to look at all these photos just peels away the years.

I also have clear memories of trolleybuses at Clapham Junction (to Harlesden) and in Tottenham Court Road (to Wood Green).

Thank you for bringing it all back to me.

The Guest Book has been upgraded and is now supported directly from the server to escape unwanted advertisments.

Entries in the original Guest Book have been imported and are numbered 1-212.

For me the Guest Book entries are a reward for the amount of effort that has gone into the preparation of this site and has brought to the surface many interesting facets which would be largely unknown. I regard the contact information as providing authenticity to any entry displayed and has in some cases enabled long lost friends to become re-acquainted.

I hope that I can continue to look forward to many more entries appearing in this Guest Book.

Now 70 but as a little lad I used to hitch a ride on the rear bumper when I had to get home having spent my fare on on ice cream. In the middle of the junction at Old swan, the tram stopped and I was aware of two figures looking at me. Both driver and conductor had alighted to investigate why the trolley had come off the wires above only to find me sitting on the cow catcher clutching the cord. I was off like a rocket and had to walk all the way to Kensington.

Our school class did make a visit to the tram workshops in Edge lane and we were all very impressed with the model tram that was pulled out of its packing case to show us.

I can still hear every noise in my head that a tram made, from the whine of the electric motors to the screech of the wheels, what fond memories.

Wonderful Website
Keep up the good work.

I keep coming back to this throroughly heart-warming site. I adore the Sherlock Holmes-esque mystery picture threads, with all these wise souls adding their thoughts. The Hammersmith Dec 1938 thread is brilliant! Having seen an excellent working model of the West Croydon/Tamworth Road area at Brighton Modelworld, albeit with trams rather than trolleys, reminded me of my own visits to that junction in 630/654 days, while Mum was in M&S, down North End.

The Guest Book entries say it all, David - you are meeting a need for many. Thanks again!

I greatly miss the trolleybuses that ran from Paynes Park to Wimbledon and also from Raynes Park to Shannon's Corner. I used to use both for Saturday Morning pictures at the Odeon Worple Road and the Odeon at Shannon's Corner, There have never been better buses for comfort and quiet journeys.
