    That’s fair, I jist watched a WTYPpod episode yesterday when they ranted about how cities remove the trolley wires with a future promise to get on battery busses, an increadibly dumb idea. So I was already a bit riled up.

      I actually think it’s something London should invest in. I remember watching a video where it said the longevity of trolley cars dwarves busses. Currently London busses have a self life of around 15 years, if we can get trolleys that last half a century and remain comfortable and modern feeling, it’s worth it. But London roads are far from equipped for them.
