The Doncaster trolleybus system once served the town of Doncaster, South Yorkshire, England. Opened on 22 August 1928,[1][2] it gradually replaced the Doncaster Corporation Tramways.
By the standards of the various now-defunct trolleybus systems in the United Kingdom, the Doncaster system was a moderately sized one, with a total of 6 routes, and a maximum fleet of 47 trolleybuses.[2] It was closed on 14 December 1963.[1][2]
One of the former Doncaster trolleybuses is now preserved, at the Trolleybus Museum at Sandtoft, Lincolnshire.[3]
