Transit cartoon - trolleybus!

[jmacmillan]

Check out the Backbench cartoon on page R8 of today's (Thursday, Dec. 20, 2007) Globe and Mail. Double poles. Steering wheel.

I wonder if it is an old recycled cartoon OR the cartoonist lives in one of the few places lucky enough to have trolley buses (e.g., Edmonton, Vancouver, Dayton, San Francisco, Seattle, Philadelphia, or Cambridge, Mass).

Bill Harrop is from BC. I believe Vancouver. He does editorial cartoons for one of the papers there as well as Back Bench.

And as a transport geek, I have a soft spot for trolley buses. I rode them in Vancouver and San Francisco, but just missed riding them in Toronto or Hamilton.
