    To address the trolley bus comments - yes, they are better than battery buses, but my city already has a tram network and the bus network covers too much territory to justify putting trolley cables.

      I hate to say it, but trolley cables are ugly, at least where I’ve seen them. It makes the streets look like old times, when each building or home had a dedicated cable going to it from a pole.
      I know it’s better than batteries, but is there no other way?
