| Comment | Phased out by trolleybuses in the 50s - early 60s, which in turn were themselves phased out by Glasgow Corporation diesel buses in the late 60s.
From what I've read, development of the Glasgow Highway plan (the motorway ring road which was eventually cancelled, along with many major features that exist now such as the Clydeside Expressway and Clyde Tunnel approach roads) meant many trolleybus routes had to be closed. It wasn't economical to keep the transportation power station (at Pinkston near Townhead) running just to power the routes that remained, so they were all converted to diesel buses. |
