A piece of wire is missing at where the pole was lost.... if you look harder. The driver must alert the overhead crew to come fix it, else all trolley coaches behind are gonna dewire here too.
Jere Cullen the insulater was missing, it fell off and was on the road. The supervisor came shortly after this trolley passed and started pulling poles and have trolleys EPU through the intersection.
When our trolley buses dewire they make this beeping noise I call the death beeps because every time I hear it I know I’m going to have bad luck that day watch out for the death beeps
Yep that's right! I had 2283 on the 41 today and I dewired at Dunbar st WB. The left turn power switch was set in the wrong direction. I stopped in the middle of the intersection and got out to look at my poles to ensure they are down and not stuck with the wires before moving the bus out of the intersection as per proper procedure.
@@Demonictelevision oh i didnt know you where a driver well you probably already know about who i am i am a transit enthusiast or as you guys call us foamers i would love to ride your bus someday we are always looking for more driver friends like for example do you know any of the following ross landian or braden fox those are some drivers i know well ross is a former driver but he is known a bit in cmbc but yea i would love to meet you someday maybe you could teach me a bit about the way of the trolleybus because i have been meaning to ask a driver to teach me it yea you can email me your block if you like my email is on my youtube channel i hope i see you around some time
Pantos are probably better for keeping up in a straight line, single lane. Trolley polls like this allow the vehicle to move between the two lanes so they can negotiate curbing, overtaking in the passing lane, etc.
@@davidl6558 I guess, I'm just being unrealistic. What you said is obviously right. I'm just of an opinion, that things should be streamlined. Rubber tire or rail, not withstanding. Having dedicated lanes or lines for Trolley's would make the system more reliable
@@canundrumsixnine6830 I very much agree. More roadway space should be dedicated as bus/tram/trolley only spaces and still more for foot and bike traffic. Short of that, we have mixed traffic
@@davidl6558 I have to admit, I am impressed with how Los Angeles is bringing back their Rail Service, both Subway, and Light Rail. As well as creating dedicated Busways. THey are moving to Hybrid Buses. Not all electric "Yet" but they will get there. The fact that the trains/rams/buses also no have dedicated bike storage on board is a plus as well.
Are there statistics anywhere of problems with trolleybus wires? The only time I ever saw a trolleybus dewired was back in 1982 in Athens, and the conductor just got out, replaced the pole on the wire and they were off again. I've never seen any problems here in Stara Zagora, Bulgaria. Has anyone designed a 'self-wiring' pole? - I can't see that would be impossible these days with so much robotics everywhere - "Alexa - rewire my trolley-poles".... It would come in very handy for routes which are part trolley, part battery - rewiring on the move.

I love that articulated DE60LFR Electric Trolley!
You mean e60flr de60lfr are hybrid diesel
I'm a train and I approve this video! !!
Pfft!!!
dang, we’re at a time where even the sky is electrified

TROLLEY MASTER RACE!!!
Lest we forget on the bus means it’s Remembrance Day
Love it.
Inside the bus why does it beep?

SF muni should've gotten trolley busses likes those from New flyer, instead of the ones we have now.
Isn't this the exact reason Spring loaded tension Pantographs are better?

@@davidl6558 Maybe the bus could have a smallish battery so that it only needs to touch the wires a part of the time?
А чего пересечку не по советским ГОСТам проходим? 🤣🤣
Вот и получил за небрежное вождение
Потому что там скоростное пересечение
All those wires above the streets just don't look safe at all.
Actually, they are safe enough. If the wires were torn apart by a truck, the power would be shut down in no time and no one would get hurt.

Actually the self-wiring system does seem to exist! I just saw your video 'Seattle XT40 King County Metro Transit' - thanks for that!
Yeah they might be a problem... If you're 12 feet tall
