Why no double deckers? Here in Britain, most systems were dominated by double deckers...and I fear that should we ever be lucky enough to see a return to the trolley bus it's going to be the sanitised single decker built somewhere in mainland Europe...seeing as how we have no manufacturing base here in the UK. There was nothing more stylish than the 'goldfish bowl' trolley buses that ran here in Walsall until 1970. Clean, efficient, and longer lasting than most diesels.

@MegaGARFISH It is sad there are no double deckers, but I'd imagine its pretty hard to find and transport a double decker bus overseas, plus, I'm not sure if the catenary there is high enough to run them.

WOW! The compressor on the BBC was nice and loud as usual and overpowered the MBTA Flyer E800. Nice vid!

I love that old GMC. Beautiful design.

I believe the first trolley is from Johnstown, PA with "Franklin" being the route name to that town (once Bethlehem Steel Plant). Logo on side is JTC - Johnstown Traction Company

"European Trolley bus with its trailer" - that type of trolleybuses was in operation in Lausanne, Switzerland in 1980's. In this rare case the trailer is a separate car but not an extention of the main car. Unfortunately I can't tell now what's its model and exact years of operation but I guess that information may be googled easily ;)

Nice video ~ trolleys are the solution to urban congestion, excess noise, and pollution.
