    They do still in some places. It’s in my city, we have hybrid buses but we could use some of these.

      Not in all though, that’s the point. It’s not an easy transition and rail systems are more reliable for public transit in my opinion.

        Rail systems are not necessarily more reliable (at leats tram vs bus I mean), I do love the aesthetic of trams, and they are also more efficient due to the small rolling resistance.

        And it is definitely easier to transition into trolley than it is to transition into tram.
