Economics of trolley-coach operation

F. Von Voigtlander (Faraday Electric Corporation, Adrian, Mich.): The author´s paper is of great interest to all concerned with urban public transportation. The popular acceptance of the trolley coach is a matter of record throughout the country, brought about largely by the swift, silent, odorless, and economical performance of these vehicles. Operators are trained easily if they have had previous experience in handling steerable vehicles, and equipment availability of from 95 to 98 per cent is quite ordinary.
