- San Francisco has a impressive fleet of approximately 300 trolleybuses. Particularly notable are the very steep grades on several routes.
After around 15 years of service the Skoda 14TR trolleybuses are being replaced by New Flyer Xcelsior trolleybuses. The replacement of the articulated Skoda 15TR trolleybuses by articulated Xcelsior trolleybuses is completed. - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ

In such a hilly city as San Francisco, an eminently sensible form of transport. Imagine the polluting clouds of smoke as diesel buses struggled up these inclines! Sadly in the 1960s and 70s in the UK, where many towns and cities had extensive networks, we lost all our trollybuses, which were replaced by conventional buses, under the somewhat misleading description of 'progress'.
Yep
Those hills no problem for an electric motor no slip just pure power...like the carrying bikes on front...cool direct power foot down and ur off...no riding clutch no slip just foot n go...look just like buses in uk inside.
Liked Friday morning 16 April 2021. I spent my childhood visiting / loving San Francisco and the Bay Area so this video is a welcomed find. Thank You for making it! Moving back would be perfect.
Like how the arms are attached the cables in the air while the buses are driving
I'm a tram and I approve this video! :D
I miss the old buses 😢😢😢
Didn't get to see the New Flyer 40 Foot Trolleys when I was in Frisco Last May, but I Rode the #5 New Flyer Articulated Trolley, Around 11pm, & Was Packed!
Look at the busses going through the Stockton street tunnel
With the exception of the unsightly overhead wiring, trolleybuses are perfect for the hills here in San Francisco.
hmmm? All thoes Smarty pants you think they would have solved that wire issue..
@@AMPProfI like the overhead wires. They signify trolleybuses and street cars.😅
Good video about trolleybus
Eti buses can be in service for 13 years of service
Darn low floors, running the fun of a bus ride!
All the Skoda's are suppose to be all gone by 2019, however I heard that they are still operating on the streets of San Francisco.
They're to be gone by the end of 2019*
@@KymondFangBeNeon_ Sadly.

@@martinwright970 yeah, the skodas were part of my childhood. 17 now, i fortunately take the 24 daily and theres always a high chance to ride one, i'll miss them
@@KymondFangBeNeon_ and a ETI are bad bus!
Warszawiacy z polski nazywali ten środek transportu Trailusie lub traidki. Trolejbusy które były w warszawie były produkowane przez firmę ZiU
a w roku 1945 JaTB. były darem związku Radzieckiego dla warszawy. Warsaw residents from Poland called this means of transport Trailusie or traidki. The trolleybuses that were in Warsaw were manufactured by ZiU
and in 1945 JaTB. were a gift of the Soviet Union to Warsaw
Omg there a bike holder on some of these? London needs that asap
BRITIAN BRITIAN a bike holder in mandatory for citybuses in the USA
Antigos?
Eti are noisy but new flyer aren’t but sometimes it is noisy
What if the bus needed to detour away from the route because of a accident or construction could it operate without a power line?
Dirtymoney8 They have a strong battery package
The New Flyers have the ability to go off wire for a few miles on its own though I'm not sure if the old Skodas have that same ability.
Michael Marfil The Skoda’s also had a battery pack.
co to tam maj za rámy v předu?
to je na kola - 1:10
Wellington City Council disliked this video lol
like it!!!!
But it's a bad bus!
Also works well in Instrument Meteorological Conditions!! (crickets chirping) ..okay.
I'm from that area. I love the tracked trolleys that run along Embarcadero and Fisherman's Wharf area, but I thought the trolley-buses are a bit overkill on overhead wiring. It seems they could easily get tangled up if the bus-driver turned too sharply, passed to closely to a bus going in the opposite direction, or even if they missed a turn. Not to mention that it required TWO cables to complete a circuit. If you notice, a lot of those wires are guy wires to support the energized ones over where they need to be.
But it's still amazing watching how they work and how they pull off to the curb to pick up passengers and then merge back into the lanes. I just hope they keep the tree branches trimmed!
Kiepe Electric - In Motion Charging -IMC LOVE it

I like protype etis
Trainusie w san francisco tak nazywali kiedyś trolejbusy w warszawie
YAH IT WAS NICER IN 2020 with almost no Cars!
NOT for nothing but It's way too noisey in the city these days
I hate low floor busses.
42luke roblox I kinda do to, but the older low floor models are pretty awesome
Trainz and Planes
Depending on the engine, yeah. Orions were usually always pretty loud.
1:52 you found a mythical.
Even more mythical:
5555 on the 5-Fulton
Pokemon Fan Transit And Rail. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. 6666 on the 66 might be a rare
@@trainzandplanes522 A 60 footer on the 66 is very unlikely.
@JesusMyLordNSavior Official What I'm trying to say is a 60 footer wouldn't work on the 66. I have seen the 66 use 40 footers recently, but I never said it was impossible.
How people're living around this road...too noisy
Zarya@ Streetcars are also noisy. I liked it when I was a baby & kid visiting S.F. Never had to actually live on a line as an adult living in S.F. Look up Rockridge in Oakland for an ideal hood to live in close to S.F. I live in beautiful Monterey now.
It's just like the noise of a fridge (or TV, if you live with inconsiderate people, trams, trains, a highway (I constantly hear the humming of cars and trucks passing by where I live), or any other monotone noise) - you get used to it and it no longer wakes you up.
The worst I experienced is living above a pub/club. Besides the music, someone will drink too much and sing or yell profanities. Since that happens at different times and the voices are different, it is much more likely than a means of transport or a fridge to wake one up.
