Trolleybuses in Cleethorpes (original) (raw)

The Cleethorpes trolleybus system once served the holiday resort of Cleethorpes, in Lincolnshire, England. Opened on 18 July 1937, it replaced part of the Great Grimsby Street Tramways, a tramway that had served both Cleethorpes and the neighbouring seaport of Grimsby. It was closed on 4 June 1960. By the standards of the various now-defunct trolleybus systems in the United Kingdom, the Cleethorpes system was a very small one, with only one route, and a maximum fleet of just 13 trolleybuses. It was operated jointly with the Grimsby trolleybus system.
