Detroit Department of Street Railways electric trolleybus in downtown Detroit Michigan during the year of 1961.

I found this historic photo on My links page Tom's Trolleybus Pictures to the right of Your computer screen.

The city of Detroit Michigan, was one of many North American citties that had once operated a fleet of electric trolley buses on the local transit agency roster.

The Detroit Department of Street Railways operated electric streetcars until 1956, and electric trolleybuses until 1962. A vintage photo from the Motor City.
