 The Manvers to Conisbrough High route was the first to go, on 1 January 1961, but the rest did not last much longer, and the final trolleybus service ran on 26 March 1961 on the Conisbrough Low to Rotherham route.The following day, four trolleybuses ran in procession to mark the passing of an era.The leading vehicle, No.29, had part of its roof removed to allow a brass band, the Rawmarsh Prize Band, to provide music for the occasion.
