You would be referring to Nancy where the vehicles look like very modern
multiple-unit trams but have pneumatic tyres, trolleybus poles and a guiding
slot in the road surface. Looked like a very good idea to me, incorporating
some of the best features of all systems but capable of ascending steep
gradients which was why they chose it.
