History and Operation
The first copy of Ikarus-260T was released in 1974. He had electrical equipment identical to the ZiU-5 trolleybus. He worked under park number 600 in Budapest until 1995. In 2007, it was restored and transferred to the museum. The second instance was built in the back of the Ikarus-260.02 bus and had planetary double-leaf doors, Ganz electrical equipment, and was also equipped with a thyristor-pulse control system . He worked in the city of Weimar until 1992 [1] . One of the main reasons for the rejection of serial production of Ikarus-260T was that the Soviet Union, being one of the leaders in the supply of equipment to the CMEA countries , provided for export a more unpretentious and reliable model of the ZiU-682 trolleybus. Especially for Hungary, the Uritsky plant delivered a modification of the ZiU-682UV to Budapest.
In 1993, in Dushanbe, the trolleybus depot No. 2 made its own version of the Ikarus-260T trolleybus based on one of the decommissioned copies of the Ikarus-260.37 city bus modification. The electrical equipment was borrowed from the ZiU-682V trolleybus. Decommissioned in 2007 [2] .
In the same year, four Ikarus-260 buses were exported to the capital of North Korea Pyongyang , then converted into trolleybuses under the Chollima 951 index at the Pyongyang trolleybus factory [3] . At the end of 2017, all trolleybuses were set aside from working with passengers and transferred to the reserve, while one of the cars went into the official use of the Sanghynsky trolleybus fleet and is engaged in the transportation of personnel.
