After four years of research, acquisition and compiling, collaborators Ashley Bruce and Gottfried Kure have produced a near definitive work on the obscure and yet surprisingly nostalgic subject of the Trolleybus in miniature. The book - - covers why so many should find such a topic to be so evocative - looks at the industrial relevance of company display models - examines exhibition models in museums - delves into attempts to recreate moving trolleybuses in miniature - catalogues commercial motorised model trolleybuses - includes 23 national trolleybus histories from 1882 to the present day - references 226 full sized prototypes - introduces 282 producers and makers - and lists over 1280 marketed, adapted and one-off models from around the world. The result is an encyclopedia of the worlds trolleybuses through the ages, seen as they once were and how they now exist in minature.
