"The 72 [bus line] has the highest ridership in the entire state... buses are often stuffed to capacity." #transit Why are we not already hanging #trolleybus wires over these #BusLanes?

Electric Public Road Transport isn't even a new idea!

@straphanger Personally I see no reason to be against #Trolleybuses or better yet #Trams - tho a #Trolleybus can climb way higher gradients than a #Tram so it's way better of an option.
And if for some reason we can't accept overhead wires, we should consider #Methaol - #Fuelcells as they provide the quick refueling abilities of #Diesel with the efficiencies of #electric and without the heavy deadweight of #Hydrogen pressure tanks...
Now with the latest MOTIS releases we can run pre-processing Lua scripts on GTFS feed data in Transitous.
I added a script to add route colors to some of the routes in the Swedish national feed from Trafiklab. Also set the route type for Landskrona's bus route 3 to trolley bus.

Also while riding round the City tonight: fun chat with a #SFMuni #trolleybus driver rewiring her poles after they didn't track through the hairpin turn at Market & Clayton.
(Back in trolley days, streetcars actually made a switchback right there).
Hattet ihr mitbekommen, dass in #Marburg keine neuen Oberleitungsbusse kommen, weil der Bund mal eben die Förderung eingestellt hat?
Wie beknackt ist das denn?!
saying hi to the homies #seattle #trolleybus #justputupsomewires
I am very much in love with trucks that run on trolleybus lines.

Personal opinion: Canada 🇨🇦 has full electric buses, including trolleybuses, on the roads… we need more of them.

Mais une des choses les plus notables niveau transports à Limoges, c'est que c'est une des rares villes de France à encore avoir des #trolleybus avec Lyon, Nancy et Saint-Étienne (si je ne me trompe pas).
Sur la première photo (12 mai) on peut voir les modèles utilisés sur la ligne 4, sur la deuxième (13 mai) une partie des modèles utilisés sur la ligne 1 et sur la troisième (13 mai) les modèles utilisés sur la ligne 1 et toutes les autres lignes pas encore mentionnées.
🚎 Just released a schematic map of the trolleybus network in Varna 🇧🇬 –
fully electric, abstract layout, focused on clarity and structure.
Made for transit map nerds, planners & design fans.

Ce qui serait bien, ça serait de mettre des panneaux M12* (cédez le passage cycliste) sur la voie du trolleybus :)
