Often wondered if there is an application for a streetcar/tram or
electric/trolly bus that runs under wires where practical, but
utilizes batteries for stretches where wires are not practical, or
unsightly.


Route number 3 in Gent is a trolley bus. I've seen them run short stretches
away from the wires when going to or from the depot so they must have
batteries.
