Preserved Auckland Trolleybuses

Hello Good people
We would love to have a Trolleybus network at MOTAT. We have the finances,
we have the vehicles, power supply and overhead stored away, but we have a
lack of one vital ingredient - Self motivated, skilled t/bus volunteers?
Anyone have any spare & stored away? They don't seem to be as plentiful as
Tramway volunteers!
Trolleybuses rain in Auckland from 1938 to September 29 1980.
Without going into too much detail, MOTAT owns Auckland Trolleybus No's.1,
3, 50, 85, 108, 115.
Ian Little's Foxton Museum has Auckland 120 and has 85, 108 and 115 on loan
from MOTAT.
The Omnibus Preservation Society of Wellington has recently had Auckland 109
given to it by Ian Little.
The Wellington Tramway Museum has Farmers No.2 which they loan to the OPS.
The Tramway Historical Society of Christchurch has Auckland's No.3 and
No.105.
There are others in the wild as sheds and accommodation, in diminishing
numbers.
