Sunday Open Thread: Our Next Generation of Trolleys
by Oran Viriyincy from Seattle Transit Blog on (#DC7D)
Shots of 4500, Metro's first low-floor articulated electric trolleybus (New Flyer XT60), in action. You can see it rolling up Rainier, up Pike, then lowering the poles and using battery power, and pulling a U-turn at the Route 14 terminus in Mount Baker. I'm glad we decided to invest in more and better trolleybuses. More are on the way and I can't wait to ride one!
