Did anyone ride urban electric public transportation?

I was once told a story from a BC Transit employee when they upgraded to the new Flyer trolley buses that a lot of the drivers were caught off guard at how much more sensitive the accelerator pedal was compared to the old buses. Woosh!

There is actually a group that is trying to get one of the old trolley buses back. Over a decade ago TransLink sold them to Mendoza in South America and the society kept one but a few years ago someone stole the switchcgear out of the bus while it was in storage because of its high copper value and now that Mendoza is trying to phase the buses out the group is trying pretty frantically to get either the switch gear pulled and shipped or a whole bus shipped back but they have so far been unable to secure funding.
