A wonderfully designed Web-site with lots of nice photos, with the provision to enlarge photos. I liked the page on the conversion stages, trolleybuses to motor buses, and the page on later planned developments for London, with many useful contacts within this related page.

I've a childhood memories of seeing trolleybuses at Aldgate, London, up to 1961, when in the early years of the late fifties and sixties, I would go with my parents from Brentwood to Ealing by the wonderful Green Line RT's, and what a wonderful site to see, magical silent red buses, and I loved walking around London, looking at the turning circles in the sky, saw a steam train in West London in service.

There have been occurrences in my past life at Brentwood, when memories of my visits to London were brought back, the former Bon Marsh store in Brentwood High Street had a wire pulley system near the ceiling for my mother to pay and order her goods.

Although it's only a childhood vision of what I thought I saw at Aldgate, there was no noise from these buses, and one vehicle was off it's turning circle, the driver sounded his horn and smiled at me!

I have been working for over ten years on Charlton produced trolleybus blinds, researching what was on what blind for each depot between 1935 and 1952, and I have created many 3/4" scale mini blinds, some in detail of many service changes over the many years, I have developed, still developing this file and sub files, to an eventual MS Excel database of all the information, and I have some nice front and rear 3/4" scale head-on photos of London trolleybuses, and the blinds can turn up or down as required.

in 1994, I visited Carlton Colville, and saw for the first time, real ex-London Trolleybuses in service, and it was an amazing experience riding them, and to once again, able to stand under the overhead, just as I did as a child, I will welcome the day when London has the trolleybus back!
