Ikarus 411T

The Ikarus 411T is the trolleybus version of the Ikarus 411 bus and the predecessor of the Ikarus 412T. The bodies were made by the Ikarus body and vehicle factory and the electrical equipment by Kiepe and Obus. Only one was built, and it entered service in Budapest with fleet number 400. In the early 1990s, when low-floor vehicles appeared, operators wanted accessible buses and trolleybuses, so Ikarus decided to build them, and its first low-floor trolleybus was completed in 1994 in cooperation with Obus and Kiepe. It was shown a year later in Hungary and in Hannover, ran as a test vehicle on Budapest lines in 1995 to 1997, and toured Romania as a demonstrator in 1997 and 1998. It went to Szeged in 1998, where an electronic fault left it parked for a long time, and it has been back in Budapest since February 2001. The transport company BKV bought it in 2003 and painted it red.
