Corgi OM43705 3 axle d/ceck trolleybus "Rotherham"

'Trackless' 37 was one of 20 Daimler CTE6's rebodied by Roe in 1956/57. Originally one of 44 vehicles, delivered in 1949-51, all were E.Lancs bodied single deckers with centre entrances, a standard Rotherham specification perpetuated from the prewar days of Tom Sykes, likely the town's most famous manager! By the mid 50's the saloons where hopelessly uneconomical, hence some being rebodied as double deckers. The model is represented on the busy cross town route 6, Thrybergh to Kimberworth, where the prototype worked until the closure of the system on October 1965. Happily 'trackless' 37 is preserved at the Trolleybus Museum at Sandtoft.
