I haven't seen any here, I'm just judging by the old Soviet ones we have back at home that's awesome tho!

I'm not from Moscow nor have I ever been to Russia I'm talking about Ukraine - we still have the old school trolleybuses (which are not free anymore) lagging around, as well as streetcars (with plastic seats)

the only thing different now is that they got rid of all big buses and put small bus-vans that go to every single spot around the city almost

Vancouver uses trolley buses!

Originally posted by FunkyCrew each streetcar holds up to twice as many passangers as a bus, so if they get rid of all 'cars, they'd have to add approx. 2 buses per each 'car - that's more money spend on bus drivers

Solution: bigger buses!!

Originally posted by Abercrombie San Francisco is a city that has a lot to offer even if they didn't have street cars, but imagine SF without them? Toronto would be just like any other meh city without them.

are you talking about the tourist street cars? they are just there for touristic value. No residents actually take them. ALso they never stop. You jump on when they are on a red light.

The street cars that actually function as transit are on right of ways that were put in when the city was built. Which is why they left them and got rid of the rest.
