    They are making a huge mistake by phasing out the trolleybuses!

    I think it is very bad idea to destroy trolleybus system in the city. Trolleybuses save environment and money too. Investment to overhead wires will pay off after 20 years. They need less energy even when you produce power from burning fossil fuels. Trolleybuses are more than busses! But let´s paint some bus lanes, we don´t want to have them in traffic jams! Trams have more advantages in bigger cities but they are more expensive!

      Actually I was a transit operator in Vancouver BC for almost 43 yr and a correction of your 1982 trolley statement - we have had the trolleys from the rails to rubber transformation in the early 1950's to the present - sad part for ALL the other canadian cities was that as they closed down we took there brill trolleys (absolutely some of the best I ever drove) - boy are those cities regretting it now

    I for one, and one of many, am rejoicing at seeing these unreliable and expensive to operate POS's gone!
    As for the new ones, yeah right.
    Oh, and Vancouver zealots should realize just how small their trolley runs are. The majority are diesels.
    It is a nice video you took. This will be way more reliable than the #5 ever was!

      @@peterhorn8482 15+ years of dispatch management and metrics on large scale solar, biomass, and wind as part of a portfolio of those fuel types, 6,000MW of coal, Natural Gas, and Hydro assets. You know, that whole real world experience vs the bullshit glossy ads and lobbyists panaceas
