3) Underground (subway);
4) Trolleybus (trolleycoach) (trackless trolley)
and if so, how was you experience with it?

Choices, 1,2&4. There wasn't a car in my family.
#1, till 1958, when they were discontinued.
#2, Interurban, sometime in the early 50's.
#4 Trackless Trolley, late 50's to mid 60's.
The population is too small to support other forms of mass transportation.
In Milwaukee, with a population of around 600K, there's no real demand for transportation on off-hours, except for special occasions.
