    Hi, All!

    In one Russian-language car echo, the question pops up: "Have Americans ever seen a trolleybus?"

    Hi Brother,
    ...Greets from my Telegram app!

    In one Russian-language car echo, the question pops up: "Have Americans ever seen a trolleybus?"

    With the help of the google-fiend (errr, friend) ..it looks like trollybuses have been in use in USA and Canada since the early 1900's in city/urban areas. They are in use in many cities to this day. So, I'd say that "ever seen" (meaning, never seen) is unlikely by people living in or visiting urban centers. Why the concern?

    Ciao!

    Yes, but they are not as common as they probably are in other parts of the world.
