 Systral in Lyon is to test the Siemens optical guidance system on route C1 for 6 months during 2009. Much of the C1 has reserved lane running and stops will be raised to a 21cm curb height. Road markings will guide vehicles to within a 5cm maximum gap. 2 18m Cristalis trolleybuses have been fitted with the necessary cameras. Jurgen Lehmann  Beijing has taken delivery of another 100 16m BJD-WG160B trolleybuses with semi-low-floor chassis, a 180kW AC motor, and an 504V auxilliary battery pack. Liu Shuang  Solingen is taking delivery of it's 15 Hess Swisstrolley3 models and Winterthur has ordered 21 similar trolleybuses. The order is worth 26 million Franks, with a first vehicle arriving in late summer, and the others following in three batches by spring 2011. Andrew Moglestue  In what has been called the 'Pollution Capital of Europe', Milan is necessarily taking delivery of new trolleybuses. As part of a major upgrade, 30 Van Hool AG300T's are now arriving. The 240kw Skoda traction motor drives the centre axle and supercapacitors recover braking energy. The trolleybuses have a capacity for 152 passengers and can 'kneel'. Alessio Pedretti More details of worldwide Tbus developments are here |
