  • Is LA still on the plans?

  • Still waiting on 1995 :)

  • @reluctantpopstar well they've been running in dayton since the 1930s actually... Dayton's last streetcar line ended in 1947. every city could benefit from ETBs

  • Gas efficient engines like CNG and hybrids may be cheaper, but they are still polluting and the running cost are more expansive than a trolley car, bus or light rail. It would have been a great investment.

  • Why didn't this ever happen?

  • This sound really nice!

    And it's true nowadays as well!

    But the gasoline lobby is bigger :-(

  • DAD!!! lol

  • lol

  • Tood bad they didn't put this together...but I see why not. This video dates from just before the MTA was created. This must have been an LACTC initiative.

    ETBs are a good option as part of the mix.

    They've been running in Dayton, Ohio since the 1950's, when they ripped out the rail based trolleys.

  • CNG has nothing on Trolleybuses..
