I like these Skoda busses in Bratislava:

In London we're getting more electric buses. 2 of my local routes are now fully electric. In time I reckon the whole fleet will be electric. It's a good fit for battery electric vehicles: defined routes with relatively low daily mileage, lots of stop-start and heavy traffic, depots with charging facilities.
City delivery vehicles are increasingly electric too. Similar reasons. And London taxis, though not sure how that will work with the longer trips they do, such as to Heathrow airport. |
Those old Metra cars sucked, hard. The ones pulled by diesels were glacial, the electric ones were no better. The interiors sucked, the ride sucked, the crews sucked.
I spent a few days in Chicago back in '02. CTA was goo, Metra should just be replaced with something that, you know, actually works... |
