Not on the Front End~!~!     These are Ken Josephson's Favorite 
TrolleyCars  --  the front pole is for complex back up maneuvers like 
the first URL below with the car backing out of 11th onto Market with 
front pole up  --  motorman caught the insulator over the TrolleyCoach 
overhead and drew a smart arc~!~!
.
There were two stub tracks on 11th that were parallel to each other  --  
one from either direction on Market  --  An X-Over was in place between 
them with a spring return point on the inbound lead.    On AM and PM 
pullouts and pullins the J-Church and N-Judah would wye here  --  two 
cars could pass the X-Over and would tend to each others pole change, 
then back out onto Market together and either proceed to route or 
barn.     The car in the first photo had pushed a bad car into 11th With 
Passengers Aboard and then backed out to continue route  --  backup 
controllers in back seat.     I took this photo in summer // fall of 1963.
