MTB-82 Trolleybus - Vintage vehicle cards of the USSR #1

From the original Soviet card (translated):

VEHICLE MTB-82 (1946-1961) was the main city trolleybus in the post-war period. Electric motor power - 86 kW, length - 10.37 m, loaded weight - 9000 kg, speed - 55 km/h, seats: total - 65, for sitting - 40

Added research information:

The MTB-82 was a Soviet trolleybus mass produced for urban transit networks in the immediate postwar period. The buses were originally initially developed and manufactured at a converted armaments factory in Moscow called Savod No. 82 (Plant No. 82).

Its designation came from a combination of Moscow Trolley Bus - MTB - and the plant number.

Thousands of these very durable, workhorse buses were produced and were in service in many cases for decades. While the model stopped being manufactured in 1961, the last buses worked lines in cities until at least 1975.
