I thought Hastings (UK) #45, a circa 1929 Guy BTX chassis with single
deck Ransomes body, was the oldest operable trolley bus?!? Of course
there's no trolleybus system in Hastings to operate it on, but I
believe it been to Sandtoft and operated there.

Hastings also has a 1928 Guy BTX chassis with a open top double deck
body that has Commer diesel engine installed in place of the electric
motor.
