English[en]
An electric trolleybus (or trolley bus) is a bus powered by two overhead electric wires, from which the bus draws electricity using two trolley poles (one for the return current, which can not pass to the ground as in the case of a tram ). Unlike light rail , trolleybuses use rubber tires rather than steel wheels on rail.
