001 Dundee first.

001 Dundee first. Dundee was the first Scottish city, and one of the first in Britain, to operate a trolley bus service. It ran from 5 September 1912 until 13 May 1914, although at that time they were actually known as “railless trolley cars”. Two trolley buses, numbered 67 and 68, operated the short 1.25 mile experimental route between Strathmartine Road and Forfar Road. Pictured is trolley bus number 67 close to the Fairmuir Post Office on Clepington Road. COURTESY OF THE EVENING TELEGRAPH, DUNDEE (ORDER REFERENCE DMOT20)
