      It will be! Though I’d rather prefer it to be an actual tram with steel wheels and steel rails

    What is the difference between a trackless tram and a bus?

    • @Pigeon_journey
      @Pigeon_journey  Рік тому +2

      Good question… I don’t really know, it had a guideway (same as a guideway bus) it’s electric and (same as an electric bus) so I don’t really know.

    I believe the city of Stirling was going to test it in the car park before hand.
    I'd look into it, but it sounds like it will happen in November and the public can view it.

      Nah, probs gonna do it up north, you can ride it during testing for 950 bucks, which I’m certainly NOT doing. And yes, testing will commence in November which I won’t be able to see sadly

Many countries are getting this kind of technology. I still think trams are better though we just have to wait and see. Thanks again!

      @@leo1933​​⁠? This isn’t a tram? A tram has steel wheels on steel rails. Brisbane metro is not a tram, it’s a BRT. And I know Paris, Montreal and other cities have rubber tires but don’t compare them to Perth, we are very different cities. So is the class 143 a bus? They have the also never considered this a tram OR a bus. I’m sharing my opinion about how I dislike this transportation method and saying how a CONVENTIONAL tram is better.
