They were nicknamed "Diddlers" and commenced running on 16 May 1931<span style="display:none"> (<span class="bday dtstart published updated itvstart">1931-05-16</span>)</span>.<sup id="cite_ref-murray_1-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-murray-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-joyce-king-newman_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-joyce-king-newman-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In 1933, LUT was absorbed into the <a href="/wiki/London_Passenger_Transport_Board" title="London Passenger Transport Board">London Passenger Transport Board</a> (LPTB) along with other tram operators, the largest being London County Council (LCC). The LPTB decided to replace all <a href="/wiki/Trams_in_London" title="Trams in London">trams</a> with trolleybuses. This started in October 1935, with two more former LUT routes, and continued in stages until June 1940, when <a href="/wiki/World_War_II" title="World War II">World War II</a> caused the suspension of the programme. By then, nearly all the trams North of the <a href="/wiki/River_Thames" title="River Thames">River Thames</a> had been replaced, however there were still some 1,100 trams servicing <a href="/wiki/South_London" title="South London">South London</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In 1946, a change in policy meant that all remaining tramlines would be replaced by diesel buses. As trolleybuses were bigger than diesel buses (70 seats compared to 56), this meant that more diesel buses were required. It was hoped, however, that this would result in fewer uncollected fares on the smaller vehicles. </p><p>In 1948, a new batch of 77 trolleybuses replaced the Diddlers, and those which had been destroyed by enemy action. A further 50 new trolleybuses were delivered in 1952 to replace the oldest vehicles, which were then 16 years old. </p><p>In 1954, it was announced that all trolleybuses were to be replaced by diesel buses, with the exception of the post-war vehicles, which would be retained until about 1970 and run over the original LUT routes. Conversion began in 1959, using <a href="/wiki/AEC_Regent_III_RT" title="AEC Regent III RT">AEC Regent III RT</a> buses for the first three stages, and new <a href="/wiki/AEC_Routemaster" title="AEC Routemaster">AEC Routemasters</a> for the remainder.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>A consortium of Spanish operators bought the post-war vehicles, some of which were converted to motor buses..
