For the sake of history tell everyone what a trolley car is.... was it electrical or diesel powered
A trolley car is part train and part bus but most stay on a set of railroad tracks and attached to overhead wires to move. A trackless trolley is a bus that runs on overhead wires but no tracks. Both are electrical and the trackless trolleys back in Dad's day didn't have speedometers in them plus a trolley car and a trackless trolley didn't need a driver's license to operate. Many times my Dad would tell me that he didn't take a trolley or trackless trolley out on his route because it was filthy, fleas infested or bug infested. Since these vehicles weren't classified as motored vehicles, they never were inspected. Frightening I assure you.
