tbus Trolleybus Campaign Site
Travelling in London is hellish for millions of daily commuters. Any idea that a 'cafe society' exists is blown away by noise and pollution from unregulated cars and trucks. Buses, forced to pollute in traffic jams, are unreliable service providers. In short, London's road transport stinks. We all need to consider zero emission electric buses and this site does just that.

Most Londoner's think of trolleybuses beginning in London in 1931 as tram replacements. True for full public service, but the first trolleybus to run with passengers on a London street was in September 1912 when an Austrian Cedes-Stoll trolleybus was run by West Ham Corporation carrying passengers on a London public highway, Greengate Street.
