Isn't this an interesting way of doing business ... a hybrid trolley Â
bus or a hybrid streetcar? Â It has a guideway which
serves as the power return rail. Â Therefore we only need a Â
pantograph to collect positive energy from the trolley
wire. Â But apparently it runs on rubber tires and is steerable, Â
following the guideway. Â And it's as long as a light
rail car.
Occurs to me that it might be an interesting place to go have Â
dinner.....
