Marseille 202 trolleybus operating at Sandtoft UK

This shows the first Renault ER100 trolleybus produced, for Marseille, now in preservation. Here she is operating at The Trolleybus Museum at Sandtoft in the UK, who have the largest collection of historic trolleybuses in the world.

Built in 1980, Marseille 202 was withdrawn in 2004 and arrived at Sandtoft in 2006 after the Marseille group TBFP encouraged its preservation. Now fully operational, 202 is often heavily loaded on its trips out, as it is so unusual. This video shows her operating at the 2008 European event in August of that year.

Other European trolleybuses on show were: Limoges 5, a Vetra CB60; Lyon 1704, a Vetra VBH85; Porto 140, a Lancia with Dalfa double-deck body; Liege 425, a Fabrique National dating from 1932; and Aachen 22, a one-and-a-half deck Henschell 562E. Also on view was 100, a PR100 motorbus.
