History
The model was produced from 1959 to 1964.[1] The Mille had different versions. They were used in Italy, Uruguay and other countries. In Italy, most were used in Milan. The trolleybus had a special style and it is different from the past models of the company.[citation needed]
The last Alfa Romeo-built trolleybuses to operate in regular service anywhere were 1000F units on Naples' two independent trolleybus systems, the ANM and CTP systems. ANM's last three were withdrawn at end of February or first few days of March 2001,[2] while CTP's last few Alfa Romeo Mille units (from series 11–36, built in 1962) were withdrawn in December 2004, by which time they were the oldest trolleybuses in service in Western Europe.[3]
Technical characteristics
The bus was powered by an 11,050cc (674cuin) Alfa Romeo 1607 or 1610 inline-six diesel engine, which produced 165 horsepower at 2000 RPM.[citation needed] The 84 trolleybuses delivered to ATAN in Naples in 1961–62 had electrical equipment by OCREN (Officine Costruzioni Riparazioni Elettromeccaniche Napoletane SpA) and OCREN-Sécheron L336C motors.[4]:242
Body
The trolleybus used bodies from Casaro, SEAC, or other manufacturers, depending on the choice of the transport company making the purchase.
