Interesting! I always thought that it was rebuilt in Kaunas and was supposed to operate as a standard passenger trolleybus...

I have photos in Ghent of this "trolleybus" in operation.
Before I can post them, I need to update the database...

Because it WAS rebuilt in Kaunas. The electric motor and other parts were used from Škoda 9Tr. It was indeed a proper trolleybus, but it didn't get the permission to carry passengers, so it was used to carry ticket checkers, and for learning purposes.

The one that was rebuilt in Gent was this one:

Этот троллейбус одно время использовался как развозка контроллеров, пассажирским не был

This is interesting. Then there are 2 similar buses that were converted into a trolleybus (sic). I was and is not the only one who was convinced that it is the Ghent one that has been moved to Kaunas. In those years buses were bought by obscure traders and their fate was afterwards hard to figure out.
Thank you for the clarification!

Original photo description by focus1965:

>This former bus (Gent, Belgium) was converted in Gent into a truck to de-ice the overhead line of the trolleybus line. The legislation in Belgium for a truck is less strict than for a bus: that's the reason. It was also sold as truck to Kaunas and not as (trolley)bus. It was never a trolleybus.

Keeping it here so that other people who will see this photo won't be mistaken. As it turns out, Ghent "trolleybus" is #06 / #7710 while here we have #68.
