THE replacement of trolleybuses by oilers is to begin in London on March 1, when the change will be made on three south and south-east routes. On April 26, three north-east routes will be converted, and the remaining trolleybuses will be withdrawn in stages at threeand four-monthly intervals. In the southwest area, however, post-war trolleybuses will be retained for some time.
The change-over has been brought forward through oilers becoming available because of cuts in services. Buses of the existing RT type will be used at first, and trolleybus drivers are now being trained for the change.
