Yes, that was when we had 'Green' Buses - ran on electric so no Carbon Monoxide emmissions. Then we went over to Diesel Buses spewing smoke everywhere because Trolley Buses were considered 'old fashioned' (more likely that the oil Companies pressured the Govt. of the day to switch). Now we clamour for 'Green' public transport - seems we have come full circle...

Around minutes 6.55-7.00 you can see some trolleybus wires.
